Winter Moot

Pull up a log, sit around the fire, soak up the atmosphere.

No more winter blues…
The Winter Moot is coming!!

The idea behind the Winter Moot is that we have a week in the woods with no pressures, it can be a time to relax, a time to practice skills and have a great time.  At this Moot we’re going to be doing cooking based skills so there is the opportunity to share knowledge or just do our own thing.

We are not having lots of scheduled workshops but we will be butchering, baking and making lots of other lovely nibbles.

So, if you want to have a no pressure break in a beautiful location (we’re hoping for snow!!), or practice your fire skills, or your cooking and baking skills, or you’d like to try something completely new, the Winter Moot is a great place to do it.
