Have you ever needed a small garden fence? A trellis or wattle fence is the answer! Sometimes referred to as hurdles, wattle fences and trel-
lises have been around since the stone age and can be made from easily-harvested and widely-available materials. This two-day workshop will introduce the many uses of wattles, hurdles, and trellises, the materials needed, and how to make a wattle fence and trellis. Students
will make a small wattle fence and trellis to take home, and have the skills to make many more. A short field trip into the woods to identify
useful materials will be included, so wear appropriate clothing and shoes. Youth ages 10-15 may register if accompanied by an adult. Adult/
child pairs will complete one project and pay one material fee. A 25% tuition discount applies to the youth registrant when registering with
a full paying adult; call to register. Ages 16+ may register and complete their own project.
