Build a Bird Feeder

Join Conservation Minnesota and the Duluth Folk School at this hands-on workshop to build your own bird feeder. Participants will learn basic woodworking skills, construct their own bird feeder, and learn how to feed the birds in northern Minnesota.

Special thanks to Arbor Wood Co. for their donation of thermally modified pine lumber to make this class possible. More information about this special, long-lasting material can be found on their website.

What goes into our class pricing? As a local nonprofit, Duluth Folk School is committed to supporting both our instructors and community. We want to compensate our instructors fairly, keep class sizes small, and keep our doors open—while also keeping prices as low as we can.
