The Woodland Living Course
A two-day overnight Bushcraft course for YOU in YOUR woodland
This course is for owners of woodland, whether newly purchased or long-owned. Using our years of expertise running Bushcraft and other outdoor courses we will come to you and your piece of land to help you:
-
Identify suitable places to construct a camp or other shelter
-
Identify the trees, plants and other wildlife in your woodland
-
Learn how to light a fire safely without matches, cook over a campfire and manage other aspects of woodland living
-
Locate and make safe drinking water, if available
We will arrange a suitable date and meet you at your woodland, bringing with us equipment for creating a temporary overnight camp, cooking equipment, food etc. Our experienced and knowledgable instructor will then work with you to help you discover what possibilities are available to you on your own piece of land.
This is not an arboreal or woodland management course.
