Mission
Expose visitors to the skilled trades, inspire youth to build, and back the inventors making more 'Made in Canada' goods.
A ten-acre educational campus dedicated to vocational training and hands-on learning, with specialized labs and training hubs for woodworking, welding, fabrication and light manufacturing.
Outdoor learning and gathering spaces, sustainable gardens and a greenhouse, ample parking and scenic views make the campus as welcoming to a school group as to a start-up founder.
