For thousands of years, our ancestors lived immersed in their environments. Come, explore the many skills and techniques used all over the world to survive. Through recreating the equipment and skills used, we hope to gain a better understanding of our natural environment, and be equipt to sustain in it. We are a group of people getting together to share, learn and practice ancient bushcraft techniques and technologies. Practicing the old skills such as fire by friction, shelter construction, edible and medicinal food harvesting and preparation, bark containers, basket making, packframes, tool construction, flint knapping, pottery, traditional tanning, as well as many more ancient outdoor living skills. Our purpose is to reconnect with nature through recreating our ancestors skills and crafts. All experience levels are welcome.

The winter is the perfect time to gather in a warm cozy place, to share stories and work on small projects. Come visit in the wigwam, where we will practice a few skills such as knife sharpening, knots and lashings, char cloth making, and fire by friction as we tell stories.

Bring a dull knife and sharpening kit, if you have one.  If you have a friction kit of any kind, that you have put together, bring that along as well.
