Fire, that all-important element, is beautiful, warm and comforting…but also ethereal and elusive, as well as a potentially ferocious and destructive force, especially when hungry and on the prowl.

The ability to harness and control fire is one of the central aspects of our humanity. In fact, firecraft is an essential survival skill, especially living, as we do, in a rural, often cold, and sometimes harsh environment.

Fuel, finesse and technique are required to properly and effectively start and tend a good fire. And often in times of emergency, when the power goes out, or when we are out in nature, a good fire is absolutely required in order to stay warm, and to prepare food.

Many of us have forgotten--or have never learned--how to create a fire for survival.

The KAN centre's upcoming workshop, Firecraft, brings acclaimed survival expert Jeff Butler to South Knowlesville to guide you through a day-long workshop on firecraft and other related wilderness skills. We are also very pleased to have, on the same day, a blacksmithing open house with Dana Kittilsen and Owen Flewelling, who will be demonstrating blacksmithing techniques, answering questions, and giving tours of Dana's blacksmithing studio.

There are still openings available for this exciting workshop.

Don't get left out in the cold!

The cost of the day-long workshop is $60 including a delicious lunch. This cost is on a sliding scale for anyone who can't afford the $60 at this time. No worries. Please contact yolandeclark@mail.com for more information, or call 391-6120.

See you there!
