 We gather together each month to enjoy nature and each other's company. We have a bonfire outdoors, fire up the woodstove in the Strawbale Studio and share a potluck meal. By this simple process, we reconnect with the elemental beauty of creation and human community. This is a great time for folks who haven't been to the Strawbale Studio to visit, tour, and meet others.  There are "regulars" - neighbors and friends - who frequently attend, and generally quite a few children. 

While this is a free community event ~ donations are (joyfully) accepted. Our goal: to provide scholarships to enable 5 low-income individuals to attend a workshop this year !  Track our progress on this page. **

What to expect:

• 6:00 pm- meet in the main house, socialize. This is a good time for a  tour the Strawbale Studio & other projects such as the Rocket Stove Heated Bench, and Kid's Cottage ~ or browse the resource books!
• 6:30 pm- Potluck meal ~ bring food to share.
