Bushcraft Basics

The ultimate expression of freedom is the lack of reliance on items you can’t produce yourself. This is the essence of Bushcraft—what you need to know to craft and successfully use the tools for living in the Bush. Each skill that we teach will have a practical application. Theory will be put to the test. You will learn fundamental skills in how to live closer to nature. Instead of just surviving, you will learn to live and thrive with the natural materials that surround you.

In this weekend course, you will learn these core skills:

- How to make a friction fire (bow drill fire making)
- Carving and coal-burning your own spoon
- How to make strong utility cordage (rope) out of natural plant materials
- Campfire cooking techniques
- Safe and efficient knife use

This hands-on weekend workshop is also a lot of fun! Join with a family member or friend to gain new skills and memories. For more information or registration, click here - https://wildernessawareness.org/adult/bushcraft-basics/
