## About

A hands-on family craft afternoon at Gale Woods Farm, the park district's working farm in Minnetrista. Groups learn the basics of needle felting and make three small holiday sculptures for decorating or gifting, using wool from the farm's own sheep, and spend time visiting the flock. No experience is needed and all materials are provided. The fee is per group of up to three people, and each group must include an adult; children must be 6 or older. Register by December 10.
