Traditional crafts and green woodworking
Learn new skills in an inspiring and creative environment
Using the resources around us this day in the woods will give you the opportunity to master new skills and enjoy a sense of achievement.

All activities can be adapted to suit different age groups, introducing new techniques in a safe and supportive environment.
