About the Foundation

A small, free, online education project that believes in learning one careful step at a time.

Cedarvale Foundation writes workshop notes in two fields: local history and traditional crafts. We choose subjects that need little equipment and reward patience.

How we write

Each workshop is tested by making the thing from start to finish before a word is published. Materials are ordinary and inexpensive, and we explain why each step matters, not only what to do.

What we ask of you

Nothing. We do not run appeals, accept donations or sell anything, and the site never asks for payment details or personal information.

Where we are

Online only. The Foundation has no building, no street address and no scheduled in-person classes.
