Howard County is fairly well known as a good place to pick your own produce during the growing season. I have friends who do that pretty regularly but I’ve never been tempted for some reason. Lately I’ve been thinking about do-it-yourself activities that don’t involve being out in the heat. (I wonder why?)
Of course there’s paint your own pottery at The Pottery Stop in Ellicott City, and the Columbia Art Center has a variety of hands-on art opportunities as well. At Savage Mill you can learn to throw pottery at Clay Coven Pottery. There are places like Board and Brush where you can make wood and sign projects.
But did you know that you can learn how to make chocolates at Sweet Cascades? You can!
Looking for something sweet and fun to do this summer?
Grab your family and friends, and let's make some chocolate!! You pick the day and time! Give us a call at 410 750 8422 for more info, or you can go to our website.
Sweet Cascades has a number of Howard County locations. The workshops take place in their Old Ellicott City shop.
Or if you’re looking for something a bit more sophisticated, I learned from this post by the Maryland Innovation Center that Howard County has a make-your-own wine facility. Wow.
Ever dreamed of becoming a winemaker? Now you can at Tin Lizzie Wineworks, Howard County's top "make-your-own-wine" facility!
I can’t imagine that this is an inexpensive hobby. On the other hand, if you’re passionate about wine, it might be right up your alley.
Have you ever attended a do-it-yourself workshop or event in HoCo? Or can you think of one you wish that we had? Let me know.
