Our workshops aren’t just “sessions” or “activities.”
They’re meeting points
— places where people gather around fire, tools,
stories, good food and shared purpose.
Everyone arrives from different corners of life: parents, teens, elders,
festival wanderers, tradespeople, birth workers, artists,
people who’ve lost their way a bit and people who are fiercely rooted.
All of them step into the same circle.
We work with our hands.
We build on the land.
We share food — real food — cooked slowly,
often with wild or home-grown ingredients.
We laugh, graft, rest, and get a bit muddy.
And somewhere in the middle of all that, something shifts.
We welcome volunteers because community isn’t built by money alone.
We weave in the bigger dream
— a future where our children inherit skills,
resilience, creativity and a sense of connection that modern life strips away.
This Spring 2026, our focus turns once again to the roundhouse:
a living symbol of community, fire and shelter.
These workshop days combine practical craft
— woodworking, earth-building, natural materials
— with the slower work of tending land-based relationships.
Every workshop we run comes from the heart.
Part skill-share, part soul-food, part quiet rebellion against the plastic, rushed world outside the trees.
You're welcome at the fire.
Come join us.
All the food we provide on our workshops & courses comes from the local forest,
growers and producers.
‘When I came along I thought it was just the natural dyeing, but I learned so much more too and have made some friends for life. Everyone has been amazing and the food was absolutely first class. Just brilliant, worth double the price’
-Ester, Natural Dyeing Workshop

These six days are part of a single, unfolding build: the completion of our reciprocal-roof log cabin roundhouse within the wider SEED project.
Each day stands alone and can be booked individually.
That said, the real depth comes from following the whole arc.
Across the six days, this work moves through the different Traditional Chinese Elements
— Earth, Air, Fire Water, Wood and Metal
The project deepens not just practically, but relationally.
You start to understand the land, the structure, the materials, and the people alongside you.
Coming to one day gives you a snapshot.
Coming to several days gives you continuity.
Coming to the full series gives you a lived understanding of low-impact building, land-based collaboration, and what it really takes to make a place by hand.
Each day follows the same steady rhythm:
arriving together,
working with focus,
eating well,
closing intentionally.
We begin with a short welcome circle and gentle qi gong, helping bodies arrive, joints warm, and attention settle before practical work begins. This supports safe movement, reduces strain, and sets a collaborative tone for the day.
Food is an important part of the work.
Lunch is shared and nourishing, using local, organic and foraged ingredients wherever possible.
This may include wild foods from the land, seasonal vegetables, and ethically sourced low-GI wild venison, with nothing ultra-processed. We eat together, take time, and treat food as part of the project — drawing energy from the land, strengthening connection to place, and supporting one another to work well.
You don’t need building experience.
Tasks are shared, adapted, and explained as we go.
Teaching happens through doing, not classroom-style instruction.
These build days take place outdoors, in the season we are in.
The roundhouse has covered space, and there are sheltered areas to work in, but part of the value of these days is being outside — moving, breathing, and working with the land as it actually is.
Weather is treated as information, not an inconvenience. Cold, damp, wind and sun all shape how we work, rest, eat and pace ourselves. Being out at this time of year supports resilience, circulation, mood and connection to seasonal rhythms in a way that indoor spaces simply don’t.
Please come dressed for all weathers, with good layers, waterproofs, sturdy footwear, and spare clothes if needed. We move steadily, take breaks, and warm up together — including through qi gong, hot drinks and shared meals.
There’s no such thing as bad weather, only unsuitable clothing — and we’ll help create the conditions for the days to feel supportive, grounded and human rather than heroic.
🌎 Earth & 🪵 Wood
This day is about arriving — on the land and with each other.
We begin with a tour of the site and an introduction to the roundhouse, the wider SEED project, and the intentions behind the build.
The practical work focuses on preparing the ground: woodchipping paths to and around the roundhouse, digging clay for cob, and beginning earthworks for the pond and future natural swimming area.
Skills & learning
Reading land, slope, soil and drainage
Understanding why groundwork matters in long-term builds
Clay identification and preparation for cob
Path-making and access planning
Working effectively as a team on physical tasks
Building shared awareness and communication from day one
This day sets the tone for everything that follows.
A day of craft, community and connection.
Based at The Rewild Community Allotment, Noxon Farm, Bream, Forest of Dean.
1 place including lunch & refreshments.
Arrive from 9.30am for 10am Start - 4.30pm
🪵 Wood & 🌎 Earth
This day focuses on enclosing the space and understanding how natural buildings stay warm, dry and breathable.
We’ll be insulating the inside of the roof using sheep’s wool and reclaimed or recycled materials, followed by internal cladding with waney-edge boards. You’ll work with hand tools, measure and fit materials, and see how small decisions affect comfort and longevity.
Skills & learning
Safe and confident tool use
Natural insulation types and their properties
Breathability, moisture movement and condensation
How warmth is held in a building without sealing it
Working with irregular, reclaimed materials
Attention to detail and finishing as structural care
A day of craft, community and connection.
Based at The Rewild Community Allotment, Noxon Farm, Bream, Forest of Dean.
1 place including lunch & refreshments.
Arrive from 9.30am for 10am Start - 4.30pm
🔥 Fire
Fire here is about energy — light, warmth, and direction.
We’ll be steadying walls, building window frames, cutting openings, and fitting reclaimed window units. Alongside the practical work, we explore how buildings relate to the sun across the day and the seasons, and how thoughtful placement affects heat, light, and use of space.
Skills & learning
Measuring, marking and cutting structural openings
Building and fitting window frames
Working accurately with reclaimed units
Understanding solar gain and seasonal light
Aspect, orientation and internal layout planning
Designing storage and living space around heat sources
This is a key day for learning how buildings can work with natural forces rather than against them.

🌎 Earth
This day is about floors — and about accepting that natural building is often experimental, adaptive and evolving.
We’ll look at different flooring approaches, discussing durability, maintenance and repairability, with examples from other projects. Practical work includes laying a gravel and stone base, positioning wooden discs, and beginning cob infill.
Skills & learning
Preparing stable sub-floors
Understanding load, compression and moisture
Mixing and working with cob
Making design choices with imperfect information
Balancing aesthetics, practicality and longevity
Working patiently with repetitive, grounding tasks
It’s hands-on, muddy, and quietly philosophical.

🔥 Fire & 🌎 Earth
We continue and complete the cob flooring and install the wood burner — the heart of the roundhouse.
This day often carries a strong sense of containment and arrival. The focus is on safe installation, clearances, and understanding how heat moves through a space.
Skills & learning
Completing and finishing earthen floors
Wood burner installation basics
Heat flow, ventilation and safety considerations
The hearth as a functional and social centre
Responsibility and stewardship of shared structures
This is where the building begins to feel alive.

💦 Water
The final day turns attention to water — how it moves through land and how we choose to guide it.
We’ll be installing guttering, shaping channels to lead water to the pond, and continuing earthworks begun on Day 1. The emphasis is on water literacy and long-term thinking.
Skills & learning
Rainwater catchment and storage
Reading water flow in the landscape
Using gravity rather than force
Channel shaping and erosion awareness
Designing systems that support land regeneration
Seeing projects as ongoing cycles rather than finished objects
It’s a fitting closing day — outward-moving, future-facing, and rooted in resilience.

— Earth, Air, Fire Water, Wood and Metal
The project deepens not just practically, but relationally.
You start to understand the land, the structure, the materials, and the people alongside you.
Coming to one day gives you a snapshot.
Coming to several days gives you continuity.
Coming to the full series gives you a lived understanding of low-impact building, land-based collaboration, and what it really takes to make a place by hand.
Each day follows the same steady rhythm:
arriving together,
working with focus,
eating well,
closing intentionally.
We begin with a short welcome circle and gentle qi gong, helping bodies arrive, joints warm, and attention settle before practical work begins. This supports safe movement, reduces strain, and sets a collaborative tone for the day.
Food is an important part of the work.
Lunch is shared and nourishing, using local, organic and foraged ingredients wherever possible.
This may include wild foods from the land, seasonal vegetables, and ethically sourced low-GI wild venison, with nothing ultra-processed. We eat together, take time, and treat food as part of the project — drawing energy from the land, strengthening connection to place, and supporting one another to work well.
You don’t need building experience.
Tasks are shared, adapted, and explained as we go.
Teaching happens through doing, not classroom-style instruction.
These build days take place outdoors, in the season we are in.
The roundhouse has covered space, and there are sheltered areas to work in, but part of the value of these days is being outside — moving, breathing, and working with the land as it actually is.
Weather is treated as information, not an inconvenience. Cold, damp, wind and sun all shape how we work, rest, eat and pace ourselves. Being out at this time of year supports resilience, circulation, mood and connection to seasonal rhythms in a way that indoor spaces simply don’t.
Please come dressed for all weathers, with good layers, waterproofs, sturdy footwear, and spare clothes if needed. We move steadily, take breaks, and warm up together — including through qi gong, hot drinks and shared meals.
There’s no such thing as bad weather, only unsuitable clothing — and we’ll help create the conditions for the days to feel supportive, grounded and human rather than heroic.

🪵 Wood & 🌎 Earth
This day focuses on enclosing the space and understanding how natural buildings stay warm, dry and breathable.
We’ll be insulating the inside of the roof using sheep’s wool and reclaimed or recycled materials, followed by internal cladding with waney-edge boards. You’ll work with hand tools, measure and fit materials, and see how small decisions affect comfort and longevity.
Skills & learning
Safe and confident tool use
Natural insulation types and their properties
Breathability, moisture movement and condensation
How warmth is held in a building without sealing it
Working with irregular, reclaimed materials
Attention to detail and finishing as structural care

Based at The Rewild Community Allotment, Noxon Farm, Bream, Forest of Dean.
1 place including lunch & refreshments.
Arrive from 9.30am for 10am Start - 4.30pm
🔥 Fire
Fire here is about energy — light, warmth, and direction.
We’ll be steadying walls, building window frames, cutting openings, and fitting reclaimed window units. Alongside the practical work, we explore how buildings relate to the sun across the day and the seasons, and how thoughtful placement affects heat, light, and use of space.
Skills & learning
Measuring, marking and cutting structural openings
Building and fitting window frames
Working accurately with reclaimed units
Understanding solar gain and seasonal light
Aspect, orientation and internal layout planning
Designing storage and living space around heat sources
This is a key day for learning how buildings can work with natural forces rather than against them.

🌎 Earth
This day is about floors — and about accepting that natural building is often experimental, adaptive and evolving.
We’ll look at different flooring approaches, discussing durability, maintenance and repairability, with examples from other projects. Practical work includes laying a gravel and stone base, positioning wooden discs, and beginning cob infill.
Skills & learning
Preparing stable sub-floors
Understanding load, compression and moisture
Mixing and working with cob
Making design choices with imperfect information
Balancing aesthetics, practicality and longevity
Working patiently with repetitive, grounding tasks
It’s hands-on, muddy, and quietly philosophical.

🔥 Fire & 🌎 Earth
We continue and complete the cob flooring and install the wood burner — the heart of the roundhouse.
This day often carries a strong sense of containment and arrival. The focus is on safe installation, clearances, and understanding how heat moves through a space.
Skills & learning
Completing and finishing earthen floors
Wood burner installation basics
Heat flow, ventilation and safety considerations
The hearth as a functional and social centre
Responsibility and stewardship of shared structures
This is where the building begins to feel alive.

💦 Water
The final day turns attention to water — how it moves through land and how we choose to guide it.
We’ll be installing guttering, shaping channels to lead water to the pond, and continuing earthworks begun on Day 1. The emphasis is on water literacy and long-term thinking.
Skills & learning
Rainwater catchment and storage
Reading water flow in the landscape
Using gravity rather than force
Channel shaping and erosion awareness
Designing systems that support land regeneration
Seeing projects as ongoing cycles rather than finished objects
It’s a fitting closing day — outward-moving, future-facing, and rooted in resilience.

🌎 Earth & 🪵 Wood
This day is about arriving — on the land and with each other.
We begin with a tour of the site and an introduction to the roundhouse, the wider SEED project, and the intentions behind the build.
The practical work focuses on preparing the ground: woodchipping paths to and around the roundhouse, digging clay for cob, and beginning earthworks for the pond and future natural swimming area.
Skills & learning
Reading land, slope, soil and drainage
Understanding why groundwork matters in long-term builds
Clay identification and preparation for cob
Path-making and access planning
Working effectively as a team on physical tasks
Building shared awareness and communication from day one
This day sets the tone for everything that follows.

In 2026, we will mark the full moons with conscious drumming — to deepen our connection to the land, to listen, to set intentions, and to gather a forest-based community.
In 2022 a group of 12 fantastic eco-builders in the making came together to learn a Norwegian Style Notch - everyone had a fantastic time learning to use the axes, working out angles, making new connections and generally enjoying the space.
Everyone worked so hard & 3 layers rose up from the foundations……
Over the weekend you will be fed:
Our fantastic chefs will provide hearty breakfast, lunch, hot drinks and snacks throughout each day.
You have the option to camp out together at a private camping field with full facilities,
and learn all the skills needed to build your very own log cabin round house.
We will start with an overview of The Rewild Project 3/4 Acre Permaculture Allotment and how the plot has been transformed and soil been build over 10 years using a Forest Garden, edible perennial growing system, chop and drop system.
Discussion about various roundwood building techniques & options.
A reciprocal roof is a self-supporting spiral of timbers where each timber rests on the next and needs no central support. It leaves a round skylight that brings light into the room.
Discussion about how these quick easy joints can easily be mastered by anyone using chisels, mallets & saws - tools that most people have to hand..
We will be using Sweet Chestnut, coppiced locally by our social forestry team who are teaching local people new skills and bringing local disused Forestry England woodland back into rotation.
The Rewild Project is a Not for Profit, Community Interest Company, and Social Enterprise. It is our mission to support local craftspeople and promote heritage craft skills.

With the amazing Rosie Fieldhouse we will be using the ancient and traditional method of cobbing to seal up the walls of the roundhouse.
Cob is a wonderfully tactile material and once you have learned the basics you can apply to many different projects - create your own pizza oven, make a den for the kids, or even build your own round house!
Rosie found her love for using natural materials whilst studying her degree.
Rosie is focussed on sharing heritage crafts with adults and children alike – proving these traditional crafts aren’t just fossils from the past but sparks for the future to ignite new ideas and an interest in traditional making practices.
With experience in Playwork and play facilitation through outdoor education and forest school, she is particularly passionate about engaging children who may not usually have access to the outdoors or an alternative, more supportive way of learning

Discussion about various roundwood building techniques & options.
A reciprocal roof is a self-supporting spiral of timbers where each timber rests on the next and needs no central support. It leaves a round skylight that brings light into the room.
How to assess the suitability of subsoil for making cob, and how to determine the right ratios for making a strong, long lasting mix.
We will then be applying this to the building through various methods.
A discussion on the benefits and applications of lime render.
Groundworks will already be in place prior to commencement of the course.
We will discuss and evaluate different approaches and methods available for groundworks, foundations and what the environmental considerations would be.
These are quick easy joints which can easily be mastered by anyone using chisels, mallets & saws - tools that most people have to hand.
With 12 attendees you will split into groups of two to scribe one of the six sides each.
Various methods of insulating & finishing walls will be discussed, one of which is straw bale construction.
We will be using Sweet Chestnut, coppiced locally by our social forestry team who are teaching local people new skills and bringing local disused Forestry England woodland back into rotation.

2023 was an interesting and challenging year in many ways!
We were both upset by a very small number of protestors who wanted to stop us doing our work, and also bowled over by the amount of community support we also received for the work we did.
And we have been invited back to the Green Gathering to continue this important work.
Debate is always invited, conflict = energy after all!
We believe in connected local food systems, using waste, and staying away from corporate industrialised supermarkets and mono-cropped grain based, destructive systems.
And it seems this is enough of a crossover with the aims of the festival - so we shall return once again!

Send your little wildlings to join the REWILD team for a fun packed, creative
Each day we offer a range of
heritage crafts
nature and land based activities,
plus large scale play,
free & ‘risky’ play…
Each day is gently structured to provide enough time for your wildlings energy to flow
both inwards and outwards
coming together for:
Where we eat nourishing food together
exploring the senses,
the seasons
and listen to traditional & seasonal stories.
We know that nourishment is one of the most important factors in having a great day out.
Playing hard takes energy & low blood sugar can mean melt downs!!
Plus good food means sending money back to the local growers
teaching our wildlings what WHOLE FOODS are
and how yummy they are is central to everything we do!
Porridge with Fruit, cinnamon, seeds, honey or oatcakes / rice cakes / pancakes - including seeds, yogurt, dates and other healthy delights!
of oat cakes or rice cakes, peanut butter, stewed fruit, fresh fruit, raisins, cheese, cucumber…
We don’t just talk about it - we LIVE it.
We Walk the walk, and lead by example & sooo many of our wildlings go home asking to help with the cooking, trying new things and understanding how to Eat a Rainbow!!
We have met the needs of many young people with additional needs here.
The unique open environment seems to suit kids who struggle in mainstream education and we are able to give them the space they need to find their place, without pressure.
We work with each family individually to make adjustments, or have a visit a few days before the club starts to ease nerves. We have quiet spaces and are very flexible.
If you’re not sure, get in touch, and we can discuss your child’s personal needs and how we can best meet them.
We always ensure we have a high staff:child ratio
well above the recommended OFSTED ratio’s.
We just don’t see how we can provide
high quality care
the high level of freedom & support
the high quality crafts that we do without this amazing team
We pay all our crew at £15ph across the board.
It feels fair to pay people a fair wage that they can live from.
We want to move towards a society where we can all contribute without the need for money,
living from the land, in harmony with the seasons.
But until we have our own land, our crew need to earn a decent wage.
Bring your young wild ones to hang out with our team:
Leah, Hannes, Emma, Yasmin & Jess
to have outdoor fun, crafts, egg hunt, painting and all the usual fun & frolics!

“I love going to Rewild during the holidays, I see all my rewild friends & I love playing with the real tools there, planting seeds and picking food to eat for dinner. We play tig, hide and seek, and pick apples”
- Wildling
“I would have loved to home educate my kids doing a nature based education, but I’m not able to right now. I absolutely love that my kids can get all the crafts and nature skills at Wildlings during the holidays, it’s an absolute lifeline to us as a respite from formal mainstream schools, they all love going so much and learn so much about growing food, and the crafts they come home with are amazing - not like any other children’s craft group I’ve ever seen. Thank you so much for all that you do in our com

Great company.

In 2022 a group of 12 fantastic eco-builders in the making came together to learn a Norwegian Style Notch - everyone had a fantastic time learning to use the axes, working out angles, making new connections and generally enjoying the space.
Everyone worked so hard & 3 layers rose up from the foundations……

Our fantastic chefs will provide hearty breakfast, lunch, hot drinks and snacks throughout each day.
You will camp out together at a private camping field with full facilities,
and learn all the skills needed to build your very own log cabin round house.
We will start with an overview of The Rewild Project 3/4 Acre Permaculture Allotment and how the plot has been transformed and soil been build over 7 years using a Forest Garden, edible perennial growing system, chop and drop system.
Discussion about various roundwood building techniques & options.
A reciprocal roof is a self-supporting spiral of timbers where each timber rests on the next and needs no central support. It leaves a round skylight that brings light into the room.
How to assess the suitability of subsoil for making cob, and how to determine the right ratios for making a strong, long lasting mix. We will then be applying this to the building through various methods.
A discussion on the benefits and applications of lime render.
Groundworks will already be in place prior to commencement of the course.
We will discuss and evaluate different approaches and methods available for groundworks, foundations and what the environmental considerations would be.
These are quick easy joints which can easily be mastered by anyone using chisels, mallets & saws - tools that most people have to hand.
With 12 attendees you will split into groups of two to scribe one of the six sides each.
Various methods of insulating & finishing walls will be discussed, one of which is straw bale construction.
We will be using Sweet Chestnut, coppiced locally by our social forestry team who are teaching local people new skills and bringing local disused Forestry England woodland back into rotation.
