A Hands-On skills fair

If you're in the Ravenna or Meadowbrook neighborhoods this Saturday, you might want to sign-up for the hands-on community skills fair sponsored by SustainableNESeattle and Seattle Parks and Recreation.

The event, starting at 10:00 a.m. is a collection of workshops to help you "learn the skills your grandparents knew".
Here is a sample of what's on offer:

• basketry
• fixing electrical stuff
• fermentation
• repurposing clothes and materials
• bike repair
• building solar cookers
• making soap
• knitting
• food preservation
