Greenwood Carving for All

  • John C. Campbell Folk School (map)

Learn how to carve your own bowl and spoon from green wood with designs, tools, and techniques inspired by this Scandinavian handicraft tradition. Start with a recently felled log, split it with wedges and froes, then shape it using axes, adzes, gouges, and carving knives. Topics will include wood selection, ergonomic tool use, bowl and spoon design, tool sharpening, and surface finishing. All levels welcome.
