The fully rehabilitated building will headquarter the 200-year-old Shaker herb business and serve as Shaker Village’s first large-scale year-round educational and cultural space with more than 8,000 square-feet of production rooms and traditional arts studio-classrooms. Free self-guided public access to daily operations, free folk traditions demonstrations, expanded volunteer opportunities, new community alliances, and a wide variety of master classes will deliver experiential learning deeply rooted in herbalism and agriculture, culinary arts, and traditional crafts. The Herb House Cultural & Traditional Arts Center will target local audiences in ways never before possible and will align unique cultural learning experiences with the school calendar and nearly 100,000 students within 60 miles of Shaker Village.
