Smoke Farm has had many facelifts since it was handed over by the Smokes Brothers. Buildings for raising and milking cattle were transformed into living spaces, bunks, a print-shop, workshop spaces, and performance areas. Many skilled craftsmen, woodworkers, blacksmiths, and set-designers volunteer hours and talents to make these alterations possible.


Fortnight brings together a handful of these experienced builders and artists to educate youth in the practical arts. Our staff also includes counselors with experience in outdoors education and professional chefs.
