JON'S BUSHCRAFT
Welcome! I am a Bushcraft enthusiast based in Warwickshire, England. This website is a representation of some of the Bushcraft projects I have undertaken. Below are some of my latest projects but please see the articles page where you can view over 20 Bushcraft tutorials. I have written these tutorials mainly as inspirational guides; if they spark an interest for Bushcraft and nature in just a hand full of people then my effort writing them has been worth while. Have fun and take care! May natures spirit and wisdom be with you... Jonathan Ridgeon.

I will take nature and show you that it can be the greatest place to be, all you need is that little bit of knowledge and courage.
I tailor course's to suit your needs and criteria which will cover safety, equipment, Fire, Shelter, Water and food, survival scenarios can also be tailored to suit.

How about spending some time around a campfire with like minded people? Fancy yourself in the woods doing all this? Theres only one way to get here, contact us and enrole on one of our courses!
