Learn to make sausage
In one room the hum of sewing machines draws me in - looking closer they are making a type of poncho- the perfect covering for the long wet spring.

Learn to make sausage, restore wooden canoes, make jewelry and so much more at the North House Folk School! Started in 1995 with just a few basic courses the folk school has expanded to a very diverse offering of classes with something to interest everyone.
Classes are offered throughout the year- their catalog online has the schedule and you can choose one that fits into your timeframe. If your class is over the weekend make sure to participate in the joint lunch hour and learn/meet other fellow students!
