Woodwork Together!

A Community Woodshop

Welcome to Highland Woodshop.

We’re glad you found us. We come from humble, adventurous beginnings and love to share that laid-back sense of friendship through craft with you. We are a small shop, located on a family property, run by three dedicated folks, Ashley Merback, Nat Stein and Katherine Edmonds, who are excited to bring woodshop knowledge and access to our community.

Our model includes monthly/yearly membership options that foster creative community, knowledge sharing, and localized environmental action. We also facilitate classes, teach custom classes for small groups, staff retreats, and private lessons.
