Ever fancied trying your hand at traditional carpentry or woodwork?This summer we have a brand new range of woodcraft workshops at Butser Ancient Farm with tutor Mike Bennett, who helped build our Saxon workshop and the wickerman for this year’s Beltain festival. You can learn to carve a spoon, weave a split hazel basket, carve wooden patterns, sharpen tools and carve a bowl, all using traditional skills and hand tools.We still have a couple of spaces left for our workshop on 13-14 May to make a split hazel basket, as well as our workshops in June, July and August. What better way to learn something new within the beautiful surroundings of the South Downs National Park?Feel free to watch this video where we talk to Mike about his workshops and the joy of working with sustainable green wood:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o47dW3__OVAIf you’d like to book on, simply visit our website here: www.butserancientfarm.co.uk/adult-workshops
