Gifts of the Deer
Description
Our goal for this week is for campers to experience the art of crafting with the natural materials provided by our native White-Tailed deer. Deepen your understanding of this majestic being as we explore their movement, habitat, tracks, and role in the ecology of our region. Learn the steps of processing hides into rawhide and buckskin. Utilize hides, fat and bones to craft tools, salve, soap, small containers, bags, and instruments. With collaboration and care, we will cultivate an attitude of reverence for the gifts and the work. This camp offers a unique opportunity to learn an advanced nature skill in a supportive environment.

*This camp is very labor intensive and campers will be working directly with a deer hide, therefore it may not be suitable for all youth ages 13-16*
