Earthskills Rendezvous, INC

Earthskills Rendezvous was founded by "Snow Bear" Taylor and Darry Wood. They began the gathering to preserve and promote indigenous primitive skills like making white oak baskets, foraging for wild food, starting fire by friction and tanning deer skins with brains and smoke. The three founders eventually invited their Cherokee friends to come share their living traditions of baskets and pottery, weapons and music. From these elders they learned many wonderful things, not the least of which is about being both humble and good-humored.

In the present day, Earthskills Rendezvous is a 501c3 operated by a small staff and board of directors.  See our website for more info at www.primitiveskills.org
