At Berlin Wood Sisters, Germany's largest English speaking woodworking community, we create a vibrant space for like-minded individuals to connect, learn, and grow together. More than just acquiring new skills, we cultivate a lifestyle of creativity and friendship as you embark on your journey to learn how to use power tools.
In 2019, Anna-Liisa, a self-taught woodworker and immigrant woman, began organizing meet-ups in Berlin for women interested in woodworking. She wanted to connect with others eager to learn how to use power tools and create amazing projects. To her delight, she met hundreds of women from around the world and discovered she was not alone in her passion.
Since then, Anna-Liisa has continued to organize workshops and has earned her carpentry diploma and gained many friends who have been helping her along the way. The community has now grown to thousands of women who share a love for woodworking. They host regular meet-ups and maintain connections online.
