Discover the ancient art of transforming plants into rope. For thousands of years, people around the world relied on natural fibers—like iris leaves, daffodil stems, and even kudzu—to create strong, durable cordage for daily life. Join us as we explore this traditional skill using plants gathered right here on the mountain. Guests are welcome to roll up their sleeves and try their hand at twisting their own cordage alongside our demonstrators.
Happening from 10:00-11:30am and from 1:00-2:30pm. This activity is free for Burritt members or included with general admission. Come learn, make, and connect with a craft as old as human history!
