At the invitation of the organizers, I set up my tent in a cozy courtyard at the anniversary celebration that day together with the turner, wheelwright, cobbler, carpenter and stonemason. Unfortunately, the signs to the farm were not optimal (an inconspicuous A4 sign on a hedge on the main street), so not all visitors found their way to the old craftsmen. However, the visitors who found their way to us showed keen interest in all the crafts.
So I had time to do a braiding course at the same time.
At this point I would like to thank the hosts for the warm welcome and the drinks that they made available to everyone who took part.
