"Good for the mind & soul..." "Inspiring, empowering, relaxing, healing, calming, joyful.... " "Deeply enriching, and fun!"
"I like who I am in the forest..."
"The foraged food was amazing..."
"Loved being in the woods away from everyday responsibilities..."
"It's amazing how restorative it is to be in the woods..."
If you like the sound of forest school for grown-ups, this day is for you. Join me for a one-day introduction to foraging & woodland skills.
Step away from the noise of daily life and spend a day immersed in nature, learning, relaxing, and reconnecting with the world around you.
Your day begins in the woods with a warming cup of foraged tea around the campfire as you settle into the rhythm of the forest.
Over the course of the day, we'll forage & delve into the abundance of wild edible plants and learn to identify native trees & understand their traditional uses; we'll wander the woods, collecting tinder and kindling, hone your firelighting skills, get hands-on with a bushcraft knife and enjoy the therapeutic practice of whittling. There'll be plenty of time for chats, relaxing amongst the trees and just enjoying the woods.
Foraged food is part of the experience, and you'll enjoy drinks & cakes made lovingly with local, seasonal foraged ingredients, depending on the season.
What's included:
🌿 Full day guided workshop (09.30–17.30
🌿 Introduction to practical woodland skills inc foraging, tree ID, firelighting, using a bushcraft knife to whittle wood and nature connection🌿 All materials and equipment
🌿 Foraged teas & cakes
🌿 Small group experience (max 10)
🌿 A relaxed, welcoming atmosphere
No previous experience is needed, just curiosity and a willingness to get stuck in. You’ll leave feeling grounded, relaxed, and a little more confident in your outdoor skills.
It's an ideal woodland skills introduction for those women wanting to join the Rewilding Weekend on Dartmoor in June (click here for more info on that).
A Joyful Outdoors day isn’t just a workshop, it’s a complete experience: part learning, part pause, part reminder of how good it feels to be outdoors.
