JUDY RAND (New York) came to a workshop at The Stone Trust in 2014 looking to learn how to fix a wall on her property – and found a love for building stone walls.
JARED FLYNN, a native Vermonter and founding member of The Stone Trust, is featured in The Stone Trust’s 2018 Calendar for the month of June. The featured photo is a large retaining wall built to support a parking area.
Starting with quarried material, and some boulders from the site, participants in this workshop honed their skills in breaking and splitting large stone, as well as chisel and hammer techniques for refined shaping.
