Family Backwoods Camping - “Just need to do more of it really!”

1st May 2012

Our Family Backwoods Camping course last weekend was a fantastic success. The families who came explored the woods, made some beautiful greenwood products, learnt about fire lighting, cooked on the fire and slept under the stars in their own shelters.

"We have all felt the lasting benefits of being out in the woods together and the relaxed pace of our time there. The children have made it very clear that they'd like to do it again as would we! I thought that the way you'd set up the facilities there was great; it hit just the right note between home comforts and survival training! We all learnt a lot over the course of the day; from instruction, observation and from being given space and time to try things for ourselves. Thank you."

"Over-all, my experience was entirely positive. Food was great. Plenty of tea/ coffee/biscuits. Wonderful setting. Just need to do more of it really!" — Family Backwoods Course participants
