Ancestral Skills for a Sustainable Modern Life
Forgotten Skillz projects are only partially about the final outcomes. They are far more about the journey of discovery of skill, self, and community.
This is not a spoon carving tutorial, simply one man sharing his journey and thoughts as he turns a piece of windfall cherry into something to nourish the mind and body.
When it comes to making spoons, I’ve only made a few, and I really have zero idea what I’m doing. I watched a couple of YouTube videos, and got the help of spoon makers on Instagram — by the way, if you haven’t followed us on Instagram we’re at @Forgotten_Skillz.
This video is just my day of spoon carving, along with some of the lessons I learned along the way.
Do you have tips on how to carve a better spoon? Drop them in the comments on YouTube! Sharing between friends is one of the founding ideals of Forgotten Skillz – Long Island.
