Join us for our 5th Annual (took 2020 off for COVID) Hand Camp at the Avon Hills Folk School September 17th-19th, 2021 . Come for all three days and camp on-site Fri/Sat night at no additional cost, or come just for the day on Saturday!

 

Campers will arrive on Friday late afternoon/evening, then set up their campsites. Take a stroll around the farm and explore the woods to get comfy. We will also have a meet and greet around the fire when everyone is settled in.  

​

Wake up, or come early for breakfast on Saturday morning. We will be serving up waffles or pancakes with maple syrup made at the Folk School, and breakfast sausage to get your day going.

​

Classes take place all day on Saturday. Each class will take place outdoors in a different part of the farm property.  Instructors will be offering two 1/2 day classes, or an all day class. Please check out the Classes page to find out what we are offering. Everyone will break for a light lunch, then continue on with the learning. Saturday evening we will serving wood-fired pizza in the outdoor pizza oven for everyone to enjoy. There will be vegetarian options as well. 

 

Sunday students can work with their instructors to finish up projects. Hang out as long as you like, then head out when you are ready. Breakfast will again be served on Sunday morning if you decide to camp.

 

Participants also have the option to forgo the camping, and just take part in the classes and meals on Saturday. Come early on Saturday and enjoy breakfast and get to know your fellow students!
