The two-day Ancestral Skills Gathering based at Meadowlark Hearth Farm east of Scottsbluff will include instruction on flint knapping, cordage, wild plant identification and uses, bush craft, ancient seed craft and other ancestral skills. The full-day events will also include socializing, shared meals, music, and dancing. The demonstrations are free, but registration is required for both instructors and participants. Students and instructors are invited to lead demonstrations at the public open house and seed festival on September 1.
