Basic Herbalism and Bushcraft 101

Saturday January 27th 1:30pm
Explore the wilderness in the immersive Bushcraft 101 class hosted by the Chattanooga Audubon Society. In this hands-on course, participants delve into the art of thriving in the outdoors through ancient and modern survival techniques.

Edward Douglass, a seasoned outdoorsman with years of experience, leads this comprehensive journey into bushcraft skills. With a focus on sustainability and respect for nature, participants learn fundamental techniques such as fire building using traditional methods, shelter construction using natural materials, identifying edible plants, purifying water, and navigating through the wilderness without modern tools.

Whether you're a beginner seeking to develop skills or an outdoor enthusiast looking to enhance your knowledge, Bushcraft 101 class at the Chattanooga Audubon Society promises an empowering experience in the heart of nature.

The class is for everyone 12+. Guardians are *required* to stay with any minors. Tickets are $40 for members and $45 for non-members. Spots are limited for this class!
