CRAFTING MAKERSPACE
COME BY AND GET CRAFTY
Starting mid March we will be offering our barn as a crafting makerspace! To start we will have knitting, crochet, and weaving materials like yarn, knitting and crochet needles, and simple weaving boards. We will also have books on those subjects that you can use in house.
If you are looking for a space to work on a project, we have a wonderful space in our barn with plenty of seating! Make yourself at home on the nice big couch and chair, as well as multiple chairs surrounding a large table. Grab a cookie... or two and a coffee from the kitchen, settle in and get crafty.
Oh, and don't forget to bring a friend or two... or five!

AUTHOR SPOTLIGHT
BECKY CHAMBERS
My first introduction to this author was her book “Psalm for the Wild Built”. This title and the sequel are absolute treasures. The tale centers around a robot and a tea monk centuries after the robots had all gained self-awareness and wandered off into the forests. The robot has one question for the tea monk... What do humans need? As you can imagine that is a hard question to answer.
This author has many books to choose from besides the afore mentioned ones, but they all have something in common. She is a pioneer of the HOPEPUNK subgenre. Books like this have characters fighting for positive change, radical kindness, and communal response to challenges.
