Camp days will include movement, thanksgiving, play, a selection of different workshops, leisurely lunches, a check-in with a small group, and circles to begin and end the day. Along with lots of permission to do what you are called to do, including a lot of beautiful “nothing” if that is what you choose, Clapping Hands Farm invites you to bring home a new commitment to yourself and the things that make you happy.
Louise Omoto Kessel will be your guide for this week, along with an excellent selection of guest artists. Louise is a storyteller and a printmaker, and she loves to felt, collage, and make all manner of things. She is also the founder and director of Clapping Hands Farm and the mother of two young adults.
Trans, non-binary, gender-fluid, and gender-creative humans who want to participate in Women’s Week Camp are welcome! Ages 18+ are welcome. The cost is $325 per person. Scholarships are available, and no one is turned away. Chatham County residents receive a $25 discount. You may sign up by the day. It’s ideal for everyone to come on Saturday and to come for at least 2 days, but they will work with your schedule. The cost is $65 per day. Register here. See more events at Clapping Hands Farm.

Moral Character and Meat-Eating
2026-05-30 11:00 - 13:30 | Piedmont Farm Animal Refuge, 7236 US Hwy 87 N, Pittsboro, NC, 27312, United States
Join Piedmont Farm Animal Refuge for Moral Character and Meat-Eating: A Philosophy Talk by Zach Ferguson on Sat, May 30, 11am-1:30pm. Zach Ferguson, a PhD Candidate and longtime friend of the Refuge, is returning for an exciting talk! In collaboration with Carolina Public Humanities, Ferguson will discuss contemporary philosophical debates about the ethics of meat eating. While some modern philosophers have posited that even a pro-animal lifestyle can include animal products, such as meat that will be thrown away, Ferguson pushes against this idea. His talk focuses on what it really means to reject speciesism, arguing that a more just world for all living beings requires changing how people think and feel about animals, regardless of one’s actions. This talk gets to the core of the challenges and contradictions that face anyone who cares about animal welfare in the present moment. After an hour-long talk, you’ll be able to meet the chickens and learn their stories before enjoying a delicious free lunch from Pure Soul!
This free event takes place outdoors. Free parking is available onsite.
