TESTIMONIALS
What do participants have to say?
"Brocken is not only passionate and knowledgeable about his kraft, he brings a sense of spirit into his work that is rare to find nowadays."
- Jon
"It's clear that Brocken has spent many years devoted to learning 'the old ways'. Attending this workshop ignited my passion for helping preserve some of these 'forgotten' skills."
- Anna
"I loved learning to whittle, and make the sticks really smooth. I never realized how many things could be made out of wood! I hope I get to try the draw knife next time!"
