Our Mission

Mandolin Creek Village works to create and disseminate the varied knowledge and products associated with "Skills For Rural Living".

Skills For Rural Living

Every rural citizen possesses a wide-range of skills, necessitated by the inconvenience and expense related to calling a professional for every small task that must be accomplished. From raising food to repairing structures, these skills must be learned from somewhere, but they are not often taught in schools. By definition, a degree from a College or University offers predominantly academic treatments of their subject of study. In contrast, Mandolin Creek Village offers a coalition of businesses teaching state-of-the-art craftsmanship and hands-on skills across a wide range of disciplines.
