I started this last year and it was so successful I am offering past students a chance for refresher courses again this year. Providing the class is not already full, any class that you have already taken YOU CAN TAKE AGAIN FOR FREE. I usually offer new information in each class plus it's a great way to reinforce what has been presented before.

ALSO, if you take three classes in one calendar year, the forth one is half off! Call or email me to register. YOU WILL HAVE TO TELL ME if it's a free class for you that way I don't have to keep track of everyone!


Girls just want to have fun! This is last years ROOTS (First Frost) class.


Making brooms in craft class. Unfortunately, there will be no broom class this year as it only got 2 feet tall and made little tiny t!eensy weensy broom bristles! Drat the drought.

I love my classroom old fashioned black board. Thanks to family for obtaining it for me from an old school building that was closed. It was no easy task to install either as the wall is CEMENT. But, several smashed thumbs, bruised knees and trips to the hardware store later it's on the wall. It's been up a year and I have broken countless pieces of chalk but have never scraped a fingernail!

We have a diversity of classes and meetings...This is a Trust Birth class for those with an interest in natural childbirth.
