This is turning into a lot more than just a camp out. I believe the purpose of the event was because so many Bushcraft shows are based in the middle or southern England but the north does not seemed to catered for as much and this show is meant to plug that gap. Let's not kid ourselves that it will be on a similar footing to existing events at the start, but in time with support who knows what it might turn into.

Confirmed skills share so far include:

Chris Lundregan from feralyamyam bushcraft and survival school
Hannah Foley from Bouddica Bushcraft
Simon Hardie from Ashdown Forest Crafts
Cliff Osenden

Guest Speakers:

Paul Smith
Jamie Wildman Frizzell from Naked & Afraid

Anyone tempted to pop along? It should be a relaxed environment.

* 100% of the ticket sales goes to the farm
* All the demo's / skill share / speakers are doing it for free (apart from materials for some workshops.)
* This is a not for profit gathering.
* People are welcome to come for the day, no need to stay overnight.
* Water taps / toilets are on site.
* Everyone welcome, no need to have a Lavvu if you want to camp. No tree's for hammocks though.
* Camping 100 yards from the car park.

The plan is to try and make it an annual gathering.
