🔥🪓 Step into the forge this summer at Ness Creek…
Join Saskatchewan blacksmith Tyler Dies for an immersive, hands-on Blacksmithing Workshop in the boreal forest 🌲✨
Over the course of this beginner-friendly experience, you’ll learn the fundamentals of blacksmithing—how to light and maintain a coal forge, shape hot steel, and use traditional tools like the hammer and anvil. By the end, you’ll walk away with your own hand-forged pieces (think fire poker, bottle opener, and more!) 🔥
This is more than a workshop—it’s a chance to slow down, work with your hands, and experience the magic of transforming raw metal into something real and lasting.
Set at the beautiful Ness Creek Site, this is a one-of-a-kind creative experience you won’t want to miss.
Spots are limited—come play with fire (safely 😉)!
