BUSHCRAFT COURSES IN SOMERSET, Bristol and DEVONWe love the great outdoors and are continually learning more about how amazing our wild world is.
We are also discovering that being out in woods, up in the hills or paddling down a river is such a benefit to our innermost being. It does us good. So how can we help you? We run all sorts of days where you can learn how to be at home in wild places, how to engage with our world with minimum impact. From children's birthday parties, to a fun day out with partners and friends. Staff training to team experience days. Stag and hen events. From an introduction to bushcraft to taking it further. Whatever it is you are thinking about we will endeavour to make it happen for you, or find the person who can. Talk to us about what it is you want to learn. Archives
