We are a pioneering natural leather tannery creating a better model based on using natural inputs with efficient appropriate technology. Think of a craft brewery but for leather tanning. We specialize in hair on buffalo and sheepskins, as well as bark tanned leather from deer and goat. There is a mix of work tanning as well as creative problem solving as we work to improve and scale up our process. Traditional Tanners' hides are sustainably sourced, would otherwise go to waste, and we donate a percentage of profits to rebuild buffalo herds on tribal lands. We are the first and only certified organic tannery in the US.

Qualifications:

The best candidates enjoy a balance of working with their hands, bodies and minds, and a mix of working together and alone. We are particularly looking for help with our hair-on buffalo tanning which is somewhat more physically demanding. You would need to be able to comfortably lift 50 pounds and not be prone to shoulder, back or arm issues. I'm 58 and do it no problem, but it does require a certain physical capability. 35-40 hrs a week. We work during regular business hours on weekdays, in a workshop on our ranch three miles outside Ashland. Compensation based on experience and regular raises as you gain proficiency. Email your resume and a note about your interests.
