My friends and I processed dogbane tonight, as well as elk and deer sinew. I now have 3 bundles of sinew and 2 baskets of dogbane, so I should be set for fiber for awhile. I quite like processing fibers with friends, its a nice community activity.
I've been doing ancestral skills since 2004. I enjoy flint knapping, brain tanning, using stone tools, friction firemaking, scout skills, tracking, mud, woodsmoke, and many other primitive/ancestral skills.
I also run the scout skills class, previously taught by Hue of Earth Connection Wilderness School, at MAPS Meets. I was also taught knapping by my friend Joshua Brown, he's a phenomenal knapper and produces great work.
I worked for Ancestral Knowledge Inc. in D.C. as an instructor as well as for Living Earth School in Virginia.
