Our ancestors utilized deer hides for making clothing, containers, musical instruments, shelter and more. MDC is partnering with Outdoor Skills of America, Inc. to provide this opportunity. This class highlights how buckskin was made, which can then be used to make durable, long-lasting, eco-friendly clothes.

You will need to spend time preparing your hide prior to class. Prior to class, you will need to soak, flesh, and scrape the hide (as shown in the Nov. 2025 issue of the Missouri Conservationist).
