Bath City Farm will be able to demonstrate and involve the public in making pencils using locally sourced green wood. The process involves using a mallet to force a square peg through a round hole to make the shape of the pencil.  A drill is used to make a hollow area to insert the graphite and then pencil is sharpened using either a large pencil sharpener or a sharp knife
