Wood Processing Course
The Wood Processing Course offers an in-depth, hands-on introduction to the practical skills required to turn standing and felled trees into usable, well-prepared material. Rooted firmly in traditional forestry practice, this course bridges the gap between bushcraft and woodland management, providing participants with the knowledge to work safely, efficiently, and thoughtfully with wood.
Led by instructors with professional forestry backgrounds, the day focuses on processing timber after felling—from snedding and sectioning to splitting, stacking, and seasoning. Rather than simply learning how to cut wood, participants develop an understanding of why different techniques are used, how tools interact with timber, and how to prepare wood appropriately for its intended purpose.
This course is equally valuable for bushcraft practitioners, instructors, and woodland owners, as well as anyone with an interest in managing small woodlands or producing their own firewood responsibly and safely.
