North House Folk School

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. Below them in a room downstairs the smell of smoked meat wafts through the door- it's a class on preserving meat- from smoking to canning to making jerky- learn to preserve your meats like they used to.

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.
