This course is suitable for beginners or those with previous tanning experience.We will have plenty time to enjoy the following:-learning ancient tanning methods practiced in early medieval Europe-learning about which barks to harvest for tanning-producing beautifully tanned hides which you can use to make rugs or bedrolls for historical reenactment-evenings around the fire in the longhouseThe hides will be supplied already skinned and fleshed, so the muckiest part is dealt with (we have the deer skins harvested from the butchery course so if anybody wants to learn this process there is plenty of opportunity too)Over two days you will learn how to correctly tan, oil, and soften your hide into a fully finished hide to take home.The goal of this course is to learn the historical tradition of bark tanning that was practised by early medieval cultures across europe, and gain the skills and confidence to continue with hide tanning projects in the future.Over the 3 days we will also fit in as many extras as we can from fish skin tanning to fire lighting and nature tinders, cordage, and food preservation.The Butchery and cooking is hosted by Craig Brooks (Saxon Forager) and the tanning is hosted by Hamish Lamley from Pictavia Leather.  https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events4/banners/840b0a50-9525-11f0-bf66-43cf0848f50e-rimg-w987-h740-dc77795d-gmir.jpg   https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events3/banners/84546f60-9525-11f0-8711-89c9b64759d8-rimg-w555-h740-dc161919-gmir.jpg   https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events9/banners/84fd5990-9525-11f0-bd3d-c172f57c4c49-rimg-w987-h740-dcf2f2f0-gmir.jpg   https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events7/banners/8551bb20-9525-11f0-bd3d-c172f57c4c49-rimg-w555-h740-dc90bde7-gmir.jpg   https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events3/banners/858e4ef0-9525-11f0-8711-89c9b64759d8-rimg-w555-h740-dc14161d-gmir.jpg   https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events1/banners/877ba000-9525-11f0-bd3d-c172f57c4c49-rimg-w555-h740-dc8d9162-gmir.jpg   https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events9/banners/88669c40-9525-11f0-bf66-43cf0848f50e-rimg-w987-h740-dc8d9160-gmir.jpg   https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events8/banners/890155a0-9525-11f0-8711-89c9b64759d8-rimg-w555-h740-dc181a17-gmir.jpg   https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events9/banners/896aece0-9525-11f0-bf66-43cf0848f50e-rimg-w555-h740-dc161c2f-gmir.jpg   https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events10/banners/8a72bff0-9525-11f0-bf66-43cf0848f50e-rimg-w987-h740-dc909279-gmir.jpg   https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events9/banners/8b0bf2b0-9525-11f0-bd3d-c172f57c4c49-rimg-w555-h740-dc627290-gmir.jpg   https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events4/banners/8bd3d690-9525-11f0-8711-89c9b64759d8-rimg-w555-h740-dc604a45-gmir.jpg   https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events1/banners/8cb18c60-9525-11f0-bd3d-c172f57c4c49-rimg-w555-h740-dc5f605f-gmir.jpg   https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events8/banners/8da1dfd0-9525-11f0-bd3d-c172f57c4c49-rimg-w555-h740-dc61462d-gmir.jpg   https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events8/banners/8e4aca00-9525-11f0-bf66-43cf0848f50e-rimg-w555-h740-dca7625c-gmir.jpg   https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events10/banners/8edb4a30-9525-11f0-bf66-43cf0848f50e-rimg-w555-h740-dcd7baac-gmir.jpg   https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events4/banners/8f8bd580-9525-11f0-8711-89c9b64759d8-rimg-w555-h740-dc171814-gmir.jpg   https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events2/banners/90abeb80-9525-11f0-bf66-43cf0848f50e-rimg-w555-h740-dc8f7945-gmir.jpg   https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events1/banners/912190b0-9525-11f0-bd3d-c172f57c4c49-rimg-w984-h740-dc302d2e-gmir.jpg   https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events3/banners/91940190-9525-11f0-8711-89c9b64759d8-rimg-w555-h740-dc94714c-gmir.jpg   https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events8/banners/92251e00-9525-11f0-bf66-43cf0848f50e-rimg-w555-h740-dc16161b-gmir.jpg   https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events10/banners/92de34d0-9525-11f0-8711-89c9b64759d8-rimg-w555-h740-dcc0b996-gmir.jpg
