Hi Campers! We hope you’ve had a great week and are looking forward to an even better weekend! We’ve got some really cool stuff coming up here at Buzz Mill’s Lumber Society!
This week we have two workshops! On Thursday we host a brand new workshop: Eco Printing & Dyes! Camp Master Chris Hyde and myself are very excited about this one, and you’ll get a newly designed badge too! And then on Saturday Chris is leading a Useful Plants of Texas walk. We’ll meet at Roy G Guerrero Park. Limited tickets available.
If you’re a regular at our workshops you’ve probably heard Chris highly recommend the Sky Earth Family Outdoor Skills Gathering. It starts on April 14 in Graham, Texas. He’ll be there and you should consider going too! If you love the Lumber Society, you’ll love Sky Earth. Click here for more info.
We’re taking part in Keep Austin Beautiful Day on April 20. For more details and to register, click here!

Eco Printing & Dyes
Spring is almost here and it's time to get colorful. Come learn the art of dyeing natural fabrics with flowers, leaves and more as we get hands-on in our newest Lumber Society class all about Springtime Flowers & Plants.
We will also explore eco-printing which creates unique leaf prints on fabric. This is a great class to pair with our Useful Plants of Austin class.
Date: Thursday, March 28, 7pm

Useful Plants of Austin
It's spring time and that means flowers, plants, trees, shrubs & vines are out for us to identify. Join us for an extensive look into the world of all our most common useful plants and trees of the Central Texas Hill Country. Participants will explore edible, medicinal and utilitarian uses of the local flora while exploring one of Austin's unique and tucked away parks. Join us and learn to decode the wall of green that surrounds us in beautiful Austin, Texas.
