We offer nature-based soul craft for our heart, mind, and hands in the land of forested hollers- with creeks filled of crystal lined geodes in Southern Indiana, originally the hunting grounds of the Maumee and Potowatami.

Soulcraft Bloomington is Indiana’s first forest and folk school -celebrating nature connection, folk crafts and traditional healing arts. Whether we are diving deep into nature connection practices or slowing down with the folk skills of our ancestors, we believe all of these paths lead to the same place-a soulful and courageous life of meaning that is of service to people and the earth. We are a vibrant, all-inclusive, intergenerational community embracing lifelong learning, nature, and living from the heart because these things cultivate a deep sense of belonging and give great purpose to our lives.
We are located in the hills of Southern Indiana and serve Bloomington and surrounding areas.

Where the Magic begins..... Join Us on an adventure!
Whether it be carving spoons, weaving baskets, concocting wild medicines, listening to stories around the fire, creating ceremony for a baby's birth—for people of any age, when we slow down and practice nature based, ancient ways we remember that we belong and that there is great purpose to our lives.
We are all interdependent, and need you to create a sustainable future!
