Coppicing, Besom Brooms, whistles and tent pegs!

Tutor; Terry Heard

Come and learn a little about coppicing and spend the day enjoying some very traditional woodland crafts. Working with green wood you will take home a selection of items made from Ash, Hazel and Beech including your own Nimbus 2000!

Selecting materials

Broom Making - hazel handles and birch broom head

Tent pegs from green ash using a monster stock knife

Then we all made whistles to round off a perfect day!
