The Wildcraft Forest is a working
plantation and farm and it is also a
workshop centre and wildcraft farm school.
We issue a Wildcraft Practitioners Diploma. We offer seasonal classes, seminars, fieldtrips and workshops which provide an inspirational and creative environment for students ranging from children to adults and from beginners to professionals. The studio village has been operating as a workshop centre for over 30 years. We seek to bring quality programming, from leading edge artists, thinkers and do’ers locally, regionally, nationally and internationally. Our scope is to link the arts, creativity, permaculture, food, wellness and activism with wildcrafting.
Wildcrafting is the practice of harvesting and using wild plants and natural materials for food, medicine, construction and craft, but wildcrafting goes beyond the forest and the land. It can be applied to design, including political and community design. It is the new “tangible” deep ecology that will soon play an important role in the global and local vision of “sustainability”.
Elzer provides insight about wildcrafting and that it’s about advanced stewardship that considers the Earth and all living beings as being multi-dimensional.
“We require not thousands but millions of wildcrafters in order to protect this planet and its multi-dimensional systems. Each wildcrafter serves as a guardian of wild places. Wildcrafters are teachers and healers who are able to protect shadow biodiversity and share ancient wisdom so that humanity will better understand natures many conversations.”
This webinar serves as an introduction to wildcrafting and provides the context from which you can better understand your close connection to the natural world and how this reflects your need to have purpose, mission and work that interacts directly with nature. This webinar includes the following topics:
- Learn about the power of wild dynamics and how the presence of codes and signs can provide us with insight about ourselves, our lifepath, our work and our changing planet.
- Learn about how you can un-plug yourself from today’s world and re-purpose yourself into a meaningful connection that bridges your life’s work and passion with the natural world.
- Experience the role of ancestral memory and how it is linked to ancient Firekeepers, stewardship and the current teachings and practice of wildcrafting.
- Nature has thrived for eons and humans have played an important role as navigators within Earth’s journey. Explore the future, including the trends that will be impacting our lives and will change this planet.
