COVID-19 Update 2020

Unfortunately we will not be able to run a festival this year and our workshops will be either cancelled or rescheduled once we know more as the year progresses. The stone isn’t going anywhere.

2019 Festival

Our 2019 Festival was amazing! 5 separate legacy builds: restoration of another section of historic Irish dry stone wall, creation of a stone base for a public school sign, cob wood-fired oven for a not-for-profit community cafe, bayside gathering area, and curved retaining wall. Lennox and Addington County 4H assisted at the Children’s Area experience for families. And a stone carving workshop was another success. Looking forward to this year’s gathering. The 2020 Festival announcement is coming soon. Connect, learn, have fun and be inspired! https://drystonecanada.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/12/2019festival.mp4
