NI Survival are running a Bushcraft Seedling Course later this month and again in October. The Seedling course introduces participants to a range of bushcraft skills in the local setting of Galgorm Castle.
Here are more details from the team at NI Survival:
There are four Seedlings to match the seasons. Each Seedling will focus on the relevant season and deliver a different experience . It is possible for a student to go on all 4 Seedling courses over the year and accelerate their skill and knowledge development.
The Bushcraft Seedling Course has been developed over 10 years and is now a 2 day course with an overnight stay out surrounded by nature. We felt this was important as it allows for a more rounded experience. Students can now enjoy a chat and banter around the camp fire at night after a long day of learning skills. Stories can be told and friendships can be formed before retiring for a night out under the stars. Awaken to the sounds and smells of the woods in the morning.
