Wand and mushroom whittling workshop
October 21, 2023 @ 1:00 pm - 3:00 pm
£12.50Join us for a woodcraft workshop, where our bushcraft expert Joe will help you transform a piece of hazelwood wood into something extraordinary! Whittling provides not just a creative expression but also a way to cultivate mindfulness, self-awareness, and a stronger bond with the natural world.
We will first show you several useful tools and how they can be used safely and effectively. You will then use a variety of techniques to create your own mini mushroom or wand, perfect to take home for Halloween!
This workshop is suitable for beginners as the basics will be covered, but if you have some experience you will enjoy perfecting your skills and learning some new techniques.
It is best for adults and children aged eight and over, though we ask that anyone under the age of 14 is accompanied by a paying adult. Younger children may struggle with some of the techniques so we would suggest opting for a wand as a starter project.
We will provide hot and cold drinks, including our tasty hot spiced apple juice
