Coming in 2023 ! Native American Paw Paw Lecture Stay Tuned !
What is a pawpaw, and why have most people never heard of it before? Join us on the farm to learn about the history of the pawpaw, the largest edible fruit native to the United States, and learn what this unique little fruit can be used for. This talk will present an overview of the growers and producers working to raise the fruit’s profile, and how the fruit tree can be reintegrated into our diets and culture.

We will begin the class with a short tour of our dye farm, and then harvest and pick flowers for our projects! We will then design and create our scarves.

Natural Laundry Softener for your dryer.
3 TIPS to SOLVE ALL YOUR LAUNDRY DRYING PROBLEMS RIGHT HERE
*Choose your Colors (Natural White and or Natural Gray)
These Wool Dryer Balls save you money, energy and time by cutting the dryer’s drying time and by you not having to use softeners. When you use 3 balls in your dryer, you can cut up to an average of 25% off your large load drying time and cut around 30-45% off your small loads!!
The balls circulate and separate the clothing and get the warm dry air right down to the core of the laundry load! The more you have the faster the drying time, softer softness and money saved. They speed up the drying time and soften up by gentle friction of the felted wool fibers against your clothing fibers.
