Over the full 4 days we will be diving into two different traditional methods of Tanning. We will first start by learning the basics of bark tanning by taking a raw rabbit skin and learn the steps to successfully tan the hide until it’s fully soft and supple.
We will then go through the process of transforming a raw sheepskin into a beautiful rug using the completely natural and ancient process of brain/smoke tan.
Camping will be available on the land . we will share a provided dinner every evening and simple breakfast foods in the morning. Because of the nature of these workshops refunds are not available. more info will be provided via email before the event.
