With fresh wood to your own stool: The Green Wood Workshop in Freiburg

On Saturday, August 1, 2026, the WaldHaus Freiburg transforms into a place for craftsmanship, nature experience, and focused work with green wood. In the Green Wood Workshop, you will create your own green wood stool under guidance - using a drawknife, cutting horse, and a lot of feeling for the material.

Craftsmanship with character and real workshop atmosphere

The course is aimed at anyone who wants to not just look at wood, but shape it themselves. Freshly cut green wood is easier to work with than dry wood and offers a special event experience: handcrafted, tranquil, and yet intense. No prior knowledge is required, making the workshop attractive for beginners.

A course for everyone who enjoys practical work

The focus is on organization, precision, and immediate work with natural materials. Instructor Frank Janson, head of the Green Wood Workshop and master carpenter, will accompany participants throughout the day. This not only results in a stable piece of furniture without glue and metal joints but also a feel for the properties of wood and traditional processing techniques.

Lunch break by the open fire

Especially atmospheric: Midway through the course, there is the opportunity to grill together by the open fire. Anyone who wishes to join brings their own grilling food. This creates a relaxed audience atmosphere and a pleasantly personal setting that underscores the workshop character of the day.

Event Location WaldHaus Freiburg: green, quiet, and easily accessible

The WaldHaus Freiburg is located at the edge of the forest on Wonnhaldestraße 6. The place stands for environmental education, sustainability, and wood utilization, providing bright rooms and an outdoor area as a fitting ambiance for creative courses. Parking is available directly at the house for visitors; the house is barrier-free and has wheelchair-accessible rooms.

Conclusion: A summer day for hands, head, and material feel

The Green Wood Workshop promises a day of concentrated craftsmanship, natural atmosphere, and a result to take home. Anyone wanting to experience Freiburg differently should witness this workshop live and secure a spot early.
