If you want to know how to survive in the wilderness, you will end up getting to know trees really well. Whether we need to make fire, shelter, tools, or crafts, we turn to trees. If you want to get to know trees really well, nothing matches learning to use and appreciate their individual qualities through the ancient skills of primitive survival.
Join us for morning of activities for learning local trees in a meaningful way, as well as an introduction to skills, abilities and ingenuity of wilderness survival. Kate Spinelli, GARNA Youth Program coordinator and Angie Jenson with Terra Firma Forestry will lead the activities.
