Hi from Anlaby, East yorkshire

[Birdy]

Hi all, im fairly new to bushcraft although i have flirted with certian bushcraft skills over the years, and the outdoor life has always appealed to me, i registered on this site a while ago with the intent to try learn new skills and spend as much spare time to get out there and have a go, unfortunatly this didnt happen but now i find myself with alot more spare time and i admit excited to get out in the woods and enjoy whats around us. i was wondering if anybody had local meets in the Hull/East yorkshire area and where would be the best woods/forest in my local area would be ok to go out and practice. Any help would be much appreciated.

Greetings from a third (originally).

A bit out of area but I always thought that the shoreline at Robin Hood's Bay would be a great place to forage.

Hi and Welcome Birdy, Im new here myself, Im not far from you, about 5 miles.

I'd say little Switz is ok for a good walk, Thats if you don't mind dodging the dog mess

hello and welcome, Im just down the road from you... if you want to go for a wander in the woods I highly reccomend Burton Bushes opposite the race course on Beverley Westwood. Lots of cramp balls to collect and huge amounts of other funghi and trees to practise your identification. The crab apples, blackbeerys and hawthorns are all ripe there so well worth a spot of foraging!

Thanks for the replys and the advice on the local sites
