I never imagined we'd be leading a primitive fire building workshop in the snow, in March! But what a success it was. Each participant got a fire going from foraged wood, chopped their own kindling and watched their king Alfred mushroom go up in flames. Well done to all who attended. More snaps to follow. 🔥 🌲

2022 will always be a special year, the year I married my human. I've gained more family members and grown closer to the existing ones. I've made dear new friends and been endlessly supported by my cherished besties. May 2023 continue to nurture those relationships and adventures that bring us pure unadulterated joy. Happy New Year to you and your loved ones. 🎉

Why not gift an experience this Christmas? We're hosting two primitive fire building workshops in March 2023. Gift your loved one the experience of learning to create fire from flint, friction and even a mushroom. 🍄 You'll spend the day in the woods drinking freshly brewed coffee, feasting on giant roasted marshmallows and getting 'hands on' creating fire from a range of primitive methods. 🎄 Coming to you from the beautiful Shropshire countryside, just outside the medieval town of Shrewsbury. 🎄 To book your gift voucher contact us on here or via our website.

We've had lots of interest in our Braving The Wilderness t-shirts. They have a large logo on the back, a pocket sized logo on the front and are made from the softest organic fabric. If you'd like to order some then send us a direct message with your chosen colour and size and we'll get making them. T-shirts are all unisex, £20 plus £2 p+p if not local. Tie dye is an option too. 👕 🎨 🌲

A productive weekend creating signage and staff shirts. What do you think?

Is there anything more relaxing than deep and meaningful chats around the fire.... and are they more therapeutic if you've started said fire with a mushroom and an ember? Thoughts?

Fire from friction, is my happy place.

My summer leading a pioneering q***r backpacking program for . How healing being out on trail with q***r youth. Taking time in nature to reflect on your identity, bond with others in your community and help create the next generation of q***r leaders. They were an inspirational bunch and I can't wait to bring some of this magic back to folks in the UK.

A little snippet of summer in California leading a backpacking program for LGBTQ+ youth. I'm 36 and have never spent time in a space exclusively for q***r humans and allies before. What a refreshing experience to be out in nature exploring this concept. We're teaching wilderness/ backpacking skills just off of the Pacific Creat Trail now and tomorrow we'll hit the trail, disconnect from the world and hike. 🌲
