WORKSHOPS
Introduction to Bushcraft
Basic survival skills in a woodland environment forgotten in our busy lives:
-
lighting fire in adverse conditions,
-
building a shelter,
-
foraging,
-
carving our own tools,
-
etc.
People living in urban areas are increasingly appreciating the need to reconnect with Nature.
Exploring these extreme skills in one of our Bushcraft Introductions not only will build your confidence but also give a new dimension to reflecting on sustainable living.
4 hours workshop.
This workshop is delivered in small groups up to 5 participants who will also have the opportunity to work cooperatively building team skills.
