With Fred Morrison
For thousands of years, cultures around the world have made cordage with natural materials, especially plant fibers. In this hands-on workshop, naturalist Fred Morrison will demonstrate a technique for manually processing the native plant known commonly as Indian Hemp (Apocynum cannabinum ) into cordage. All participants will have the opportunity to make their own cordage and bring home extra materials to continue at home. Ages 10 and up. Limit 20 people per session.
