In June 2025, a powerful windstorm swept through Beltrami County, toppling over 9 million trees. If one of those blowdown stumps is now part of your yard, why not give it a magical second life? In this fun, hands-on workshop, you’ll transform an ordinary stump into a whimsical fairy hideaway. You’ll begin by creating a charming door and window—sparking endless ideas for future additions. (The fairies, of course, will take care of the rest!) Youth (12–18) and “young at heart” adults; students 10 and under must be accompanied by an adult participant. Note: Additional $5 supply fee due at the time of class to instructor.
