Frequently Asked Questions About Courses

Most workshops are designed to accommodate all levels, from absolute beginners to those with prior experience in the craft. Each course listing specifies if any particular background is required to ensure the tasks are manageable for every participant. The focus is on the learning process and providing a supportive environment for everyone to develop new skills at their own pace.

The duration of workshops and courses varies to suit the specific craft being taught. Most sessions range from a single day to a full week, with the exact timing and daily schedule clearly outlined in each course description. This allows for a thorough and relaxed learning experience without feeling rushed.

What you'll need depends on the session you choose, and you can find a specific kit list on each page. Generally, we recommend bringing: • Weather-ready clothing: Layers are great for staying comfortable outdoors. • Sturdy footwear: Good shoes or boots are a must. • Hydration & Food: A water bottle and your lunch or snacks (check your specific course to see if we've got the catering covered!). • Tools for learning: A trusty knife and a notebook to jot down what you learn.

Usually all courses include necessary materials such as: • Hides • Hand-outs and resoures • Note: Materials are typically included, though some sessions, such as the clothing, courses may require a separate purchase upon arrival. This ensures the right amount and type of material is selected for a specific project or fit. All relevant details regarding material costs are clearly provided within each individual course listing.

Most workshops and courses involve outdoor work to provide an authentic environment for the craft. The specific venue details and any indoor facilities used are clearly stated within each course listing. After signing up, you will receive a dedicated kit list.

The physical demand varies depending on the specific craft and environment. While some sessions involve light manual work, others require more stamina for outdoor activities. Detailed information regarding the physical nature of a course is included in the individual listings to help with choosing the right experience.
