Whether you’re a complete beginner or already have some woodworking experience, our friendly and practical workshops will help you develop new skills and take home something you’ve made yourself.

During the course you’ll gain practical experience using traditional woodworking tools, including:
- Chisels

- Augers and braces
You’ll also learn:

By the end of the workshop, you’ll have developed confidence in using woodworking tools and created a handmade item to take home.
Half an hour lunch break allows for a 6 hour course.
Our green woodworking courses are designed to be welcoming and inclusive. Projects are tailored to suit your experience level, allowing everyone to work at a comfortable pace.
Whether this is your first woodworking workshop or you’re looking to improve existing skills, our instructors will guide you through the process to help you achieve a finished piece you’re proud of.
