Classes & Workshops
Old-Fashioned Skills for Modern-Day Living
At Nan's Homestead, we believe there's always something new to learn, and you don't have to grow up on a farm to get started!
Inspired by my grandmother, Nana, who was never afraid to try something new, our classes are all about getting back to the basics, learning practical skills, and having a little fun along the way.
Whether you're curious about sourdough, want to grow your own food, or simply enjoy making things with your hands, there's a place for you here.
Learn Something New!
Our hands-on classes and seasonal workshops may include:
- Sourdough & Bread Making: Learn about sourdough starters, baking techniques, and making delicious homemade bread.
- Gardening & Growing: Discover how to grow your own food, start seeds, and make the most of your growing space.
- Backyard Chickens & Quail: Learn the basics of raising poultry, from daily care to getting started with your own flock.
- Traditional Crafts: Explore crochet, knitting, and other handmade skills.
- Seasonal Workshops: Enjoy special projects and activities inspired by the changing seasons.
Classes vary throughout the year, so there's always something new to discover!
Coming Spring 2027!
The Homesteading Experience
Have you ever dreamed of becoming a little more self-sufficient but weren't sure where to begin?
We're excited to be developing a homesteading course for spring 2027!
Drawing from seven years of urban homesteading in Lakewood and our new adventures in Kiowa, this course will focus on practical skills, lessons learned, and helping you begin your own homesteading journey.
Whether you have a small backyard, a few raised garden beds, or acres of land, homesteading starts with curiosity and a willingness to learn.
More details and registration information will be coming soon!
