History
Black Bear Leather has been in operation since 2014 Black Bear Leather opened its first workshop and retail location in the bucolic village of Intercourse, Pa in 2015. In 2017, Black Bear Leather moved locations into a small workshop and retail collective in Lancaster City. Then in June 2019, after a little bit of magic and whole lot of plain Amish blooded hard work, the brand new Black Bear Flagship Retail Store and Workshop: Black Bear Leather & Home was established in downtown Lancaster City. Leather crafting workshops coming Fall 2019.
