Authentic Campfire Cookery

[vc_row full_width=”stretch_row” el_class=”innerpage-rowgraphic”][vc_column width=”2/3″][vc_column_text css=””] Bringing people together through fire, food & woodland craft. [/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css=”” el_class=”inner-pagetitle”] Step into the woodland kitchen and discover the joys of traditional outdoor cookery in this immersive one-day course. Set against the beautiful backdrop of our woodland basecamp, this course celebrates the simple pleasure of preparing and sharing good food around the campfire. You’ll explore time-honoured methods of cooking in the wild, using cast iron, hot smoking, baking, and earth ovens, as well as learning how to manage a fire for a range of cooking tasks. Led by experienced outdoor educator James Kendall, you’ll spend the day learning hands-on skills that transform humble ingredients into delicious campfire feasts. From baking bread over the flames to roasting meat in a ground oven, this course is a journey into the flavours, aromas, and community spirit of woodland cookery. This course is perfect for anyone who wants to deepen their outdoor living skills, from bushcraft enthusiasts to food lovers looking to explore the art of cooking in nature’s kitchen.

Walking with Trees (August)

[vc_row full_width=”stretch_row” el_class=”innerpage-rowgraphic”][vc_column width=”2/3″][vc_column_text css=”” el_class=”inner-pagetitle”] NATURE I.D. MADE SIMPLE – FOR EVERYONE Have you ever paused on a walk and wondered, “What tree is this?” Or spotted a curious flower, unusual leaf, or animal track and wished you had someone there to tell you more? Walking with Trees are free guided walks through beautiful woodland and parkland. Usually taking place on the second Tuesday of the month, we visit a different country park or venue around the Wrexham area to discover beautiful wild places. This month’s walk takes place around Llwyneinion Community Woodland, Rhosllanerchrugog where we will get to explore the mixed native trees and wildflowers of this new community project. When you book your place we will send you full details of where we are meeting. Each month we’ll take our time exploring not just the trees, but all the wild wonders that catch our eye along the way. From wildflowers and edible plants to signs of wildlife and the changing seasons, we’ll follow our curiosity and see where nature leads us. Whether you’re brand new to the natural world or already have a budding interest, this is a relaxed, welcoming way to learn more and connect with the landscape around you.
