Good morning from the woods - kettle is simmering Good morning from the woods - kettle is simmering over the campfire, awaiting today's visitors. It's lovely outside, the air is fresh, a few birds are twittering. Wishing you a fab day 😊

What just one photo/vid from yesterday's Campfire What just one photo/vid from yesterday's Campfire Bread Baking! Well it was a fun day, run on behalf of the @chilternsociety first everyone was busy whittling sticks in preparation for baking and fire lighting, then getting their fires burning (not so easy on a damp cold day) and then baking spicy damper / stick bread over their fires. Lunch comprised, naan breads and delicious beef kebabs (locally sourced from @nativebeef), and in the afternoon little loaves baked in these Dutch ovens. Thank you to the participants who made it a very enjoyable day 😊
