GOURD WORKSHOP, mid-day

To attend and for exact location, Register [HERE](https://www.schoolofself-reliance.com/event/noon-gourd-workshop-30/) The location noted below may change, please register for exact location. August 20 @ 12:00 pm - 2:00 pm $30.00 – $45.00 mid-day GOURD WORKSHOP Thursday, August 20, noon. Here’s another ancient skill that you’ll enjoy learning. Botanists know that the “ornamental gourds” came out of Africa, and somehow made it to the American south, and spread to the Southwest. How they got to the Americas is a matter of debate — some say they simply floated, but it’s very likely that they simply came on one of the many boats from Africa that came to the Americas in the pre-Columbian era. You will get to choose a gourd, and learn all the steps necessary to clean, cut, sand, and create a funtional product. Each person will work on turning an ornamental gourd into a bowl for eating, or perhaps a canteen, ladle, or plate. There are several skill sets involved, and we’ll talk you through them so you’ll understand the mechanics of making a gourd that you’ll be happy to use. We’ll bring tools, but if you have a good knife, hacksaw, fine files, bring them! Not a highly-complicated craft, but requires patience. You will select a gourd that we bring, and clean it, decide where to cut it — no two gourds are alike — and then clean the inside and smooth the sharp edges. You’ll end up with a new skill and a bowl or dish that you can use right away. You’ll also get to take seeds home so you can grow your own if you have the space. *$45. [$30 for seniors/students] RSVP for this one so we bring enough gourds! Location given after you register.*

Update 08-05: We have some cool sake from Yaegaki (the updated pic). To minimize plastic waste guests are encouraged to bring their own personal sampling glass for the sake. Guests are also encouraged to order food from the adjoining restaurant Josui Ramen as they are a partner business with Astro. See [https://josuiramen.com/](https://josuiramen.com/) for their info. They have very good vegan miso ramen. Be advised that the last call for food is 8:30 pm. There is a large parking lot with plenty of free and safe parking. Kanpai!
