Weaving Mini Cedar Baskets at Kindness Farm

🌻 EVENT DETAILS: Weaving is one of humanity’s oldest technologies. Here in the Pacific Northwest, Indigenous peoples have worked with cedar since time immemorial, weaving its bark into baskets, hats, mats, clothing, cordage, and other objects of everyday and ceremonial life. 🧺 In this hands-on workshop, we’ll work with cedar bark and waxed cord to weave our own miniature baskets while exploring weaving as both craft and medicine. No weaving experience is necessary. Come ready to slow down, work with your hands, and weave something beautiful. 🌞 This event will take place outdoors at Kindness Farm. 🌲 FREE or By Donation! Pay what you can. No one turned away. 🍄 Please get your tickets here before the event! This really helps us with logistics and preparing for the event. 🚙 PARKING Please park on the farm side of the street anywhere up or down the street. Do NOT park on the grass across the street from the farm (you will see "No Parking" signs). This is important for safety vehicles to pass through. We reserve 2 driveway parking spots (in the gravel, on the right) for folks with accessibility needs. 🌼 ACCESSIBILTY INFORMATION Venue is not certified ADA accessible. The farm's bathroom is not technically ADA accessible, but has been used by folks with wheelchairs. The majority of the farm itself is accessible, though not all parts are (we have some narrow pathways). Note that we use woodchips for the majority of our pathways. 🐝 COVID-19 & Other Illness: If you’re feeling unwell, we kindly ask that you rest at home and join us another time. Masks are not required for this gathering, but you are encouraged to mask or distance in whatever way feels right for you.
