Offgrid Anvil

Offgrid Anvil is a small forging studio just outside Carmel Valley, created by blacksmith Greg while building his off-grid homestead. What started as a personal workshop has grown into a space where people can unplug, try something new, and get hands-on with the craft of blacksmithing.Greg offers beginner-friendly classes that focus on practical skills, creative problem-solving, and a relaxed, welcoming atmosphere. Whether you’re making a bottle opener for the first time or trying your hand at something more complex, you’ll get step-by-step guidance and plenty of time at the anvil.At Offgrid Anvil, the goal isn’t perfection — it’s learning something new, working with your hands, and leaving with something you made yourself. It’s a great way to spend an afternoon in Carmel Valley, especially if you’re looking for a unique and memorable experience.
