Caring for Yourself is Caring for the Land June 3, 2025
Move with more awareness and fewer injuries, while tending outdoor spaces for children's play! Sawing and cutting wood are often necessary parts of land stewardship, creative expression, and building of all sorts; sawing can also present hazards to our bodies. Learn the basics of chainsaw use and safety with an emphasis on minimizing hazards by being present in our surroundings and our bodies and ‘dancing’ with our tools and materials. This inclusive workshop is intended for novice or first time chainsaw users, and those who have not felt comfortable signing up for more ‘traditional’ chainsaw courses. Tools and PPE (work personal protective equipment) provided. Those with work gloves, eye protection, chainsaw chaps and helmets are encouraged to bring their own.
