Sienna Ranch’s Woodshop and Carpentry Program is a place where students can learn skills and problem solving.  Basic carpentry skills are introduced and quickly put to use on group and individual projects.  Children are encouraged to come up with their own project ideas and are gently coached on how to accomplish their vision.  They work In the new woodshop at Sienna Ranch and at the ever-growing, student built Tree Fort.  

Project Woodworking (ages 6-12)

Join us for Sienna Ranch’s after school carpentry progam- a fun-filled journey into the world of hammer, sawdust, and tree forts.  In this class, students will design and build fabulous wooden projects, learn construction techniques and safe tool use, engage in fascinating explorations of physics and engineering concepts, and develop practical problem-solving techniques.   Students will work together on real-life, usable projects using hand tools, wood, and recycled materials. 

The class will introduce the fundamentals of woodworking and tool use, sketching, technical drawing, and construction methods.  Then, we allow the students to develop their own project ideas.   Any level of carpentry experience is welcome.  Students will work at their own pace with as little or as much guidance and direction that suits their learning style.   We provide the framework- students bring their inspiration and creativity.

At least one class per session will be spent working at the students’ favorite spot- the ever-growing Tree Fort overlooking the hills of Sienna Ranch

Tree Forts and More (ages 8-14)

The woodworking and carpentry program designed for the homeschool student, this class is a longer version of Project Woodworking and will allow for even more “Tree Fort” time and an opportunity to work on larger projects at the ranch.

Note:   If your child is younger than 6 and interested in woodworking, check out the Junior Ranchers program which will include some time in the Sienna Ranch Woodshop.
