Burn Bowl Workshop – Ancient Craft, Modern Connection

Step into the woods this Valentines weekend and experience one of the oldest and most rewarding bushcraft traditions: burn bowl making. Using fire, hand tools, and traditional techniques, you’ll create your very own wooden burn bowl to take home—a practical and beautiful reminder of your day in the wild.

This hands-on workshop is designed for anyone who loves nature, craft, or outdoor living. No previous experience is needed—our expert instructors will guide you through every step, from safely burning and shaping the wood to carving, finishing, and personalising your bowl.

Along the way, you’ll:

• Learn the history and heritage of burn bowls in survival and daily life.
• Master safe techniques for using fire and tools to shape wood.
• Gain practical bushcraft skills you can apply to other outdoor projects.
• Slow down, relax, and reconnect with nature in a supportive, friendly environment.

At the end of the day, you’ll take home a functional, hand-crafted bowl you’ve made yourself—a unique piece of wilderness heritage and possibly the perfect Christmas gift!

Perfect for: outdoor enthusiasts, crafters, or anyone looking for a meaningful time in the woods.

Don’t miss your chance to step into the wild, master essential survival skills, and forge lasting connections with nature and fellow participants. Survive and Revive invites you to an adventure that goes beyond the ordinary—join us in unlocking the secrets of the wilderness!

There will be hot drinks and a hearty lunch provided.
