Echoes in Time: Workshops in Early Living Skills
“Join us for our 10th annual gathering! Workshops include early living skills and primitive crafts from the stone age era through the pioneer era. The workshops are meant to appeal to people with historical and sustainable interests – mountain men, outdoorsmen, rewilders, permaculturalists, families, boy scouts, homeschoolers and abos. However, anyone is invited to register. No previous knowledge or experience is required. In fact, if you have a particular field of interest not mentioned, let us know when registering and we’ll do our best to accommodate your curiosity. Plan to register early as space is limited. Come prepared to learn amid a circle of enthusiasm and new friends. We look forward to one and all” – Echoes Staff
