Fire has long been a tool for survival throughout human history. It has been used to light our way in the night, cook our food, warm our bodies, fertilize our fields, and gather around for stories.
In this workshop we will explore the ancient art of making fire-by-friction, primarily using the bow-drill technique. Our main focus will be learning how to carve and use our fire kits. We’ll also prepare tinder bundles and blow them into flame.
This will be a full-day program with plenty of hands-on work. You will go home with a fully functional fire kit and the skills to practice on your own.
In this course you will learn:
- How to carve your own bow drill kit
- How to use a knife safely and effectively
- What local woods are best for friction fire
- Techniques and strategies to get a bowdrill coal
- To create and use a natural tinder bundle
The cost for this program is $165. Click this link to learn more and register: https://wildernessawareness.org/adult/awakening-fire/
