A different kind of treat for Mum – a wild day out for all the family in beautiful nature.

This will be an enjoyable and gentle introduction to the world of Bushcraft, looking at some of the basic skills necessary to feel at home in the great outdoors.

Bushcraft is about surviving and thriving in the natural environment, using nature’s resources in a responsible and sustainable manner. Bushcraft reaches far beyond the realms of survival, teaching how to read and utilise the natural world in a way that can only add to the outdoors experience.

In a friendly and accessible way, we will look at some of the basic Bushcraft skills, including firemaking and serve up some mothers day treats with elements of campfire cookery and bringing awareness to the natural world around us.
