Hi

Are there any meet ups in the South West? It would be great to have the opportunity to learn new and practice old skills!

Cheers and bushcraft beers :beerchug:

I'm new here and new to bushcraft.
A meet in the South West would be fantastic.
If anyone else feels motivated enough, then I am interested.

anyone ideas of where, i have access to a small wood north of bournemouth but it is very small. There is a huge 30-40m fallen birch there with the most exquisite patterned wood due to some disease so if there are any good carpenters around then i could pursuade my girl-fiends family to let a group of us on there.

I too would be up for a meetup somewhere in the South West - although I have very basic training, I do (as my profile suggests) have most of the gear!!

I live around the Bournemouth Area, although I would be more than happy to travel if required.

If anyone fancies just a single night out testing/honing their skills over the Xmas period, please feel free to PM me.

Thanks

Guys I might be able to offer a location (100 acres of mixed woodland, no public access) for a meet up in Cornwall. This will be done outside of my business. I will contact Tony again to see if its OK to put it on the site. How about Easter weekend? We could do Friday to Monday. If there is enough interest I am prepared to do the organisation.

Sounds good- reckon I could drag my bottom from Newquay for that. Seeing as 'coastal' is becoming a hot topic, any chance of that? Or maybe a professor of a made up discipline with a dodgy beard...?

Sounds like a commendable plan, i would like to try the digging up of the sea kelp root like ray mears did on tv this week, if it is to be a coastal visit. Is the wood you use near the sea smarty?

The wood we use is not next to the sea. South coast 20 minutes, North coast 20 minutes by road depending on holiday traffic. a beach forage is not outside the realms of possibility. Just waiting for the OK to go live.

Hey all, is there any south-west meets going on these days? I just noticed SMARTY that your footsteps of discovery woods is just 12 miles from my house! And less than 5 from me now (my everyday workplace) in Tregony. Would love the idea of a meet that close! :D
