Cake tasting – it’s a hard job today! 😉

by Rachel Leave a comment

We like to go the extra mile for our customers. Today’s was a hard job, eating cake! 🎂 😉

RB CakesWe ordered this brilliant bushcraft themed cake from new business RB Cakes, run by friend of Bushcraft Adventures Rachel Blunt.

I can confirm it is absolutely delicious, and that yes, I did have two pieces with my cup of tea! (and maybe a bit before dinner too!) 👍😂

Full blog review to follow soon. We look forward to seeing how we can support RB Cakes and bring these delicious cakes to our customers in the future, Rachel

Arrival of the cowgirls

I met the group as they pulled up to our site in their minibus. And was greeted by a group of 15 cowgirls all in fancy dress. I knew instantly that we were in a for a fun session!

My favourite fire lighting method

by Steph Leave a comment

I think most people know from coming to parties and events that I love fire. I often sit and watch fire. It has got to be the most mesmerising thing, and possibly more so when it is a fire that you have lit.

The satisfaction that comes from lighting a fire, for me is second to none. I love it when I work with groups – kids and adults – and you take them through the process of building a fire and then letting them light it with whichever means they have chosen. The look on their faces when they know that it has taken and they have done it is amazing!

What happens at a typical teen bushcraft birthday party?

by Bushcraft Adventures Leave a comment

Our two hour bushcraft events for teens go a few steps further than our parties for younger kids, so you to explore bushcraft more.

See if you can beat your ancestors by trying to light a fire old-style… without matches! From flint and steels to ancient tools such as charcloths and crampballs, your challenge is to create a flaming tinder bundle – something your parents definitely won’t let you try at home. If you can master this, we’ll even let you loose with the bow drill method (aka rubbing two sticks together!)
