2025 Instructors

  • Jamie grew up canning and preserving foods with her mom and grandma. The foundation was set, but she really became passionate in her 20s, after she started her own garden. With the abundance from her home garden as well as local farmer’s markets, she has almost infinite raw materials to work with.

    Jamie turned her chemical engineering background and passion for recipes into a cottage food business in which her specialty is unique granola and a variety of preserved foods.

    When she isn’t actively cheering on her two student athletes, or volunteering with local groups, she loves being creative with the bounty that comes from her garden.

  • Trinity Muller, the Minneapolis based natural dyer and textile artisan behind Petal & Hank, uses homegrown, foraged, and food waste dyes alongside traditional dyes from around the world to transform cotton, silk, wool, and other natural fibers. Trinity’s multi-disciplinary approach to creating textiles incorporates natural dyeing, foraging, and gardening, alongside processing raw wool fleeces, spinning, knitting, weaving, sewing, and surface design. 

    Trinity’s professional and academic background in education and her love of handmade goods shape her workshops. A lifelong learner herself, Trinity aims to deepen her students’ connections to fiber, textiles, and nature through hands-on experiences that welcome questions and encourage curiosity.

  • A lifelong student of art and nature, I live by the seasons. Spring brings new growth & energy. Summer is buzzing & busy. Fall is a place to calm down and winter a time for rest, rejuvenation, reflection and, for me, creating. In summer’s rush of garden compositions, both personally & professionally, I excitedly dream about fall & winter’s artistic explorations. Each winter is a dive into myself and memories of the other seasons through oil painting, printmaking and needle felting.

    Primarily self taught after attending an arts high school, I fell deeply in love with oil painting landscapes in 2021. In October 2023, I took a felting class and was smitten. Needle felting as fine art has allowed me to stretch and grow in new ways as an artist. Using the same principles & elements of design, color theory, and eye for detail that I apply to my paintings, I’m on a quest to blend and layer fibers to render realistic scenes in wool.

    I live in rural Buffalo, MN with my wonderful husband, 2 dogs, cat & 8 chickens. My garden compositions, oil paintings & felts can be seen at restaurants & homes around Minneapolis & west metro.

  • Josie is enamored with all things craft since childhood, when she attended programs at the local nature center making sumacade and wild blackberry jam with churn butter. In her twenties, an inordinate amount of time was spent in the pursuit of wild edibles and wild wine making, joined shortly thereafter by an insatiable interest for all things baskets. Throughout this, fiber has been the constant companion, a compendium of knowledge and experience on a slow boil. In backwards fashion, from knitting to fiber studies, to growing her own flax, the journey continues. Craft in all forms is the path to a greater connection with the earth, ourselves, and each other, all of which could use greater unity.

    Each year she teaches at the Lake Superior Traditional Ways Gathering, and taught/assisted classes as an intern at North House Folk School. Currently, she occasionally renovates turn of the century houses and endeavors to have a life full of learning, teaching, and creating craft.

  • I have been a woodworker most of my life and enjoy making just about anything from wood. I was born in South Africa and have lived in Minnesota for over 25 years. My passion is furniture making and I now mill my own Lumber on my sawmill and enjoy recycling logs that many times would be firewood or wood chips. I have taken a few Timber Framing classes at AHFS and hope to build a timber frame one day. I live in St Augusta with my wife Julie. Julie and I enjoy hiking and traveling.

  • Lisa Meyers McClintick is an award-winning writer and photographer, longtime contributor to the Star Tribune and USA Today, and author of Day Trips from the Twin Cities guidebook. She’s also a teaching artist at The Loft, Paramount Center for the Arts, and other venues with a specialty in mental health, visual and nature journaling. She’s been a Minnesota Master Naturalist since 2021.

    Lisa makes jewelry, beads, embroiders, and practices wet and needle felting when she needs a more tactile creative endeavor than writing, photography and drawing.
