The Woodland Basecamp workshop aims to teach all the skills needed to spend a whole day comfortably in the woods. Our presenters Andrew and Emma combine their knowledge of outdoor culture, nature and adventure with their background in illustration and design. They have been living in a woodland environment for eight years and have learnt most from life by simply staying put in one spot and allowing nature to reveal itself. They’ll share with you how to set up camp, using lightweight tarps and clever knots, find and prepare firewood, teach fire lighting using natural tinders, cook food over fire and carve useful objects with simple tools. Most of all though, they’ll teach you how to switch on your senses and become more attuned to the rhythms of nature, making for a richer, deeper outdoor experience.
This workshop can be taught across all levels from senior leaderships teams and down the line.
