Learn on, homesteaders.
Here, you can find local and not-so-local resources to discover educational opportunities in everything from herbalism to beekeeping, fermentation to forging.
Empowering people to expand their skills and abilities fosters a culture of abundance: what we can make, we can freely share. By reacquainting people with their capacity for creation over consumption, we aim to create a more equitable, resilient, and regenerative community.
A note on our next steps
For the last seven years, we’ve had the privilege of connecting people to opportunities to learn with their hands and hearts. It’s been a wild and wonderful ride with blacksmithing in breweries and campfire cooking under the stars.
While we will no longer be offering or promoting workshops, we’ve created this new site as an ongoing resource for hands-on education in Atlanta and beyond.
Expand your Skills:
Educational Resources
Connecting you with hands-on learning opportunities has always been our number one priority. Check out our growing list of resources to discover amazing educational opportunities and instructors around Atlanta, online, and beyond.
About the Homestead
The Homestead Atlanta began offering scrappy hands-on workshops in donated spaces around Atlanta in 2013. Founded by Kimberly Coburn in partnership with some of the city’s most knowledgeable artisans, herbalists, growers, fermenters, and more, we’ve watched people discover skills that became lifelong pursuits or forge a bottle opener for the simple joy of moving metal with their hands and a hammer.
Community
A regenerative community relies on relationships, so get to know your local farmers, herbalists, and artisans. Plus, connect with like-minded folks who want to share their knowledge, creations, time, and effort with you! Keep up with us on social, sign up to receive our periodic newsletter, discover an online community of homesteaders, and more.
Let’s keep
in touch!
There are a hundred thousand species of love, separately invented, each more ingenious than the last, and every one of them keeps making things.
