Ancient Living Skills
The Ancient Living Skills course is built around the skills needed to thrive in long term survival or primitive living. Students will gain hands on experience with a wide array of materials and processes through a selection of projects such as: bone and antler knives, twined tump lines, bark canteens, limb assisted pecking and grinding, raw hide and bentwood burden baskets, and several smaller projects. This course presents a wide range of the primitive skills world.Through awareness, hard work, and ingenuity, we can provide for all of our needs with what the Earth offers first hand in our own land base. The majority of materials will be local to Vermont.
