Beginner Hide Tanning Intensive


  • Gray Fox Farm 6073 Beaver Valley Road Chimacum, WA, 98325 United States (map)

An all weekend class, beginning Friday evening and wrapping up Sunday evening. Camp spots are available on site!

In this immersive class, we will go from start to finish with a few hides. We’ll start with a green hide, and work all the way through the process to smoking and finishing. Whether you’d like buckskin, hair on blankets, moccasins, knife sheaths, or just rawhide, come and learn the ancient art of preserving hides. 

This class is physically challenging, and turning a hide into something beautiful takes time and hard work. Those with serious physical limitations, recent surgeries, inability to lift heavy objects, are not recommended for this class. There are one day classes offered that would be better suited for folks with physical limitations.
