Elemental Bushcraft - Fire - 26th March
26th March 2023 10:30am – 2:30pm
All campers would agree that there is something very special and primitive about being sat outside, huddled around a campfire.... Don’t take our word for it though, come and join us for the first of our 4 elemental takeovers…..FIRE!
Here we begin by discussing the origins of fire, folklore, its important role in human evolution and its different uses in survival situations.
We also cover:
Introductory fire lighting techniques
Natures fire extenders and exploring plants and fungi with fire lighting properties
Foraging for fire lighting resources
Batoning wood, using and edged tool
Advanced fire lighting workshop
Our course includes a delicious light lunch cooked over an open fire.
We finish off our day with a mini campfire challenge! Can you utilise the skills learnt in this session to create your own personal campfire and toast a marshmallow? Lets see if you can put those new skills to the test…….
All of our fire lighting activities cover fire safety, fire management and safe tool use to ensure personal safety throughout and minimal impact to the environment.
