Eltham Valley Pantry, 713 Boatharbour Rd, Eltham, NSW, 2480, Australia.
Join professional Spoonsmith, Jeff Donne, for a hands-on day of carving your own kitchen utensils using a small axe, some specialised carving knives and your hands.
Carve small spoons, butter spreaders, spatulas and spurtles straight from a tree using traditional skills and experience the blissful feeling of whittling away the hours at an unhurried pace.
Learn about sourcing sustainable materials, the basics of spoon design and how to safely turn a log into your favourite wooden spoon.
No experience is needed and all tools, materials and a leather apron are provided. All you need to bring is you, a pair of closed top shoes and a willingness to whittle.
Take home what you make!
The workshop includes yummy morning tea provided by the lovely Eltham Valley Pantry.

Jeff Donne is one of Australia's best known spoon carvers with many years of carving and teaching under his belt. He teaches the traditional method of spoon carving where a small axe and a sharp knife are used to slice away layers of wood from a freshly cut log. It's pure analogue bliss!
