Introduction to Bushcraft Day 1

This full day can be attended as a stand alone or followed up with a second consolidation day to cement the learning before taking the newly acquired skills away. The day will cover the following topics:

Shelter Building: Build a simple yet effective A frame or Lean-To shelter, learn how to set up a tarp

Natural Cordage: Making string from plant fibres

Foraging: Learning to identify edible, medicinal, and poisonous plants, identify trees and learn tree uses.

Water preparation:  Worthwhile knowledge if you're travelling and venturing out into wild places.
