HIGH DESERT FIBERSHED LEARNING CENTER
We are excited to announce that we have launched the new High Desert Learning Center here in the Surprise Valley, Cedarville, California. We are collaborating with the Fibershed Learning Center in Marin County sharing ideas and advertising.
We are opening for in-person classes and want to reach out to teachers to contact us if they would like to schedule a class or workshop. Save the date? Warner Mountain Weavers has been is business since 2000 and has a 2 story building with a classroom upstairs and downstairs to accommodate students. We also have a large outside dye area with picnic tables, burners and antique ringer washing machines. We have a mature dye garden which is quite extensive.
We are proud to be the flagship store for the Lani's Lana ~ Rambouillet Wool line of quality products including yarns, blankets and fabric which are Fibershed compliant and Carbon Beneficial.
We are centrally located and draw customers from a 250 mile circle including N.E. California, Southern Oregon and Reno, NV. The Surprise Valley is a hot spot for agri-tourism, birding, hiking and geology which draw people to this area.
If you are interested in scheduling a class or workshop please contact us with your class title and a description of what you want to teach, our calendar is pretty open. Save that date!
