Highland Woodshop is a community woodworking shop in the Willamette Valley. We support makers of all experience levels—from those stepping into a woodshop for the first time to seasoned craftspersons refining their work.
Our space is designed to make woodworking approachable, welcoming, and hands-on, with the tools, guidance, and community needed to help people build with confidence. Whether you’re here to learn the basics, develop new skills, or deepen an existing practice, Highland offers a place to work, grow, and create alongside others. We are a volunteer run organization and expect all highland woodshop community members to participate in running the shop.
We can be hard to find, so be sure to follow the directions below. Because we are on private property, we are very strict about parking, so the family living on the property can get in and out of their home! Accessible parking and drop-off are always available. But please move your car in a timely manner if dropping off and be sure not to block the residential parking during drop off.
Please follow these directions, as entering our address into your GPS will not take you to the shop.
Enter 1936 NW McDougal Dr. into your GPS.
This address will take you to our street parking. Park on the curvy part of McDougal. When you park on the curve, you'll see a small Highland Woodshop sign on a stump at the entrance of a small clearing leading to the back of Highland Woodshop. Head down that graveled lane and find us in the big barn. The garage doors will be open.
*** A NOTE ON ACCESSIBILITY: We are an accessible shop, but our street parking is not! If you need accessible parking or are dropping off material, please email us [email protected] for directions (parking above requires walking a 1/4 mile down a gravel road)
