But if we can understand the clues trees give us we can unlock their identity and so much more. On this one-day course\, we’ll show you how to identify trees in winter by looking at buds\, bark\, the shape of the tree and other clues. We’ll also look at the different uses that trees have\, their place in the ecosystem and dive into a bit of woodland folklore. You will also take away your very own FREE Tree Leaf Identification Swatch Book\, which is perfect for continuing your learning and practicing tree ID after the course is done. \nJoin James\, who will be your tutor for the day. He has worked for many years in and around trees from managing the largest community woodland in Wales to hosting his own program of bushcraft and woodland skills courses at National Trust venues. \nThe Chirk Castle estate is a fantastic site to learn about trees because there is such a wide range of species here which make up a range of varied habitats including broadleaf woodland\, scrubby grasslands\, and ancient hedgerows. \nThe course is suitable for anyone aged 16 or over. Tickets cost £35 per person. \nPlease bring a packed lunch on the day but hot drinks and biscuits will be provided. Please also bring suitable clothing and footwear for the outdoors as we’ll be exploring the estate parkland. \n \nLeaf ID Swatch Guide Included!\n \nEveryone attending this course also gets a FREE Leaf ID Swatch Book to use throughout the day and take away with you. Produced by the Woodland Trust\, this pocket-sized and lightweight little guide features leaves\, twigs\, and buds from 32 common UK trees and shrubs which are cleverly presented and grouped according to similarities in leaf shape\, in a format that also makes it ideal for bringing the natural world closer to everyone. On the reverse of each page\, the tree or shrub is briefly described. There are also interesting facts and information about where that species tend to grow.\n\nAbout the Tutor\n \nJames Kendall is Bushcraft Instructor and Forest School Leader. He has been working in environmental education & conservation for over 10 years now. He received the Bushcraft Competency Certificate awarded through the Institute for Outdoor Learning after 2 years of real experience and practical study. He was also the Project Manager for Long Wood Community Woodland\, the largest community-owned woodland in Wales\, overseeing the management of 300 acres (120ha) of broadleaf and conifer forest. He is a former Director of Llais y Goedwig\, the voice of community woodlands in Wales. \nJames has always had an affinity with woodland habitats\, being at home amongst the trees\, and he has made it his mission to study under some of the UK leaders in bushcraft\, greenwood crafts and sustainable woodland management including; Dave Watson (Woodland Survival Crafts)\, Ben Law (woodsman\, author\, and eco-builder) Patrick Whitefield (permaculture teacher and author) and Mike Abbott (author and greenwood craftsman). \n \nBooking\nGet in touch if you’d like to know more email us. Advance booking is essential.
