Beke Olbers (she/her)
Beke Olbers passion lies in creating beautiful utensils from natural materials.
“Sounds simple… but there is a lot of learning behind this. Luckily I started long ago which gives me the opportunity to teach those skills over the last decade or so. Though teaching goes back way longer.
Together with my partner we run a Bushcraft company over the last 28 years. So that is the other half of my full time job. Based in The Netherlands we run most courses here, but also around the globe. We teach bushcraft and living of the land skills, animal tracking and my crafts off course. Basketry, tanning, leather work, leather clothing are the main things I teach atm. All of these are connected for me and keep me happy and working. We do run courses by ourself but also are happy to be hosted by someone.
Sometimes I make leather items on commission. Anyways, writing about myself is not my biggest skill… hope it makes sense. Looking forward to meet you all!”
Beke’s speaks English, Dutch, or German.
