Comment INTRO for information about upcoming 1-Day Intros

The Stone Trust has three separate 1-Day Intros in October in Vermont, New Hampshire, and New York. A 1-Day Intro Workshop is a great way to learn the basics of dry stone walling in just one day. Take advantage of the nice fall weather and learn these skills before the winter.

Comment 'Winter' for information about Winter Workshops

The Stone Trust understands that you all are busy during walling season, when the weather is nice enough to be outside walling. That is why we offer off-season workshops through the winter, so you can improve your skills for the next year. The Stone Trust PA has an indoor walling facility that allows you to wall in any weather.

It's getting cooler out there and almost time for warm caps. Get your Stone Trust fleece-lined cap to keep your head warm through the fall and winter. Represent this organization with an embroidered logo.
