Make Your Own Plant Propagation Stations

Join Rebuild and kickstart your woodworking journey with an introduction to essential hand tools! In this beginner-friendly class, you'll learn how to craft your very own plant propagation station. We’ll guide you through selecting the right materials, cutting wood to size, and assembling your project with precision, with an emphasis on building those skills so you can continue to use them on future projects. This workshop is perfect for those new to woodworking and eager to build foundational skills while creating something functional and beautiful. You'll leave with a custom plant clipping propagation station and the confidence to tackle future woodworking projects! We encourage participants to bring plant clippings to swap with other participants.

Sliding Scale Pricing:

At Rebuild, we believe everyone should have access to learning handy skills, no matter their financial situation. Our sliding scale pricing reflects our commitment to community care and recognizes that financial stability can vary for all of us. We dream of spaces for everyone to join in, share knowledge, and contribute to a more equitable environment. If all of these tiers are inaccessible to you please email Julian to be added to the list for any workshop.

We base much of our pricing off of the work done by Alexis J. Cunningfolk. Read more about The Sliding Scale: A Tool of Economic Justice. Her Green Bottle Sliding Scale Tool is very helpful in determining what tier is right for you.
