You will discover what edible plants can be found locally, and learn what you can and can’t eat and why. You will also be learning about other useful natural resources that can be found in woods improving knowledge of bush crafting skills.

You will learn to use three different methods to start fire- flint & steel, friction and a bow saw.

4- Medallion making

Using pewter shot, you will create our own moulds from clay and smelt pewter on a campfire to make small medallions.
