Paper-making with Wild Plants

Event date and time
July 30, 2017 - 1:00 PM to 2:30 PM

What if you could make paper with plants collected from your own backyard? In this workshop we'll guide you through the paper-making process, from collecting and processing the plants to pressing and drying the paper. We will start with a short walk on the St. Lawrence University Kip Tract, where we will identify good plant material together before returning to the Field Station to make our own paper. Screens and other materials for paper-making will be provided. Please email natureupnorth@gmail.com to RSVP.


This event will be held at Wachtmeister Field Station at the south end of the SLU campus in Canton. To get there, proceed south down Park St. past the campus athletic fields. The drive will be on the left coming from the SLU campus and right if coming from Route 27.
