Natural Cordage

Description

Join us for a 3 hour course learning how to make natural cordage using materials foraged in the wild including goat willow, nettle, lime bast and rawhide. You’ll see the different ropes each material produces as well as get the chance to make some for yourself and test out their strengths!

Locations

• Highbury Orchard
  We will look at materials found locally and then showcase some additional pre-prepared materials and give you the chance to make your own rope or twine back at the orchard paved area.
• Riverbrook
