Badger Bushcraft

Badger Bushcraft, founded by Phil Brown, offers bespoke bushcraft, survival, primitive technology and nature based learning events, courses and activities in the stunning countryside of Kent and the south east of England.

Phil has an infectious passion for all aspects of bushcraft and country living combined with an exceptionally professional attitude, a host of relevant qualifications, years of experience and tremendous enthusiasm. Phil and Badger Bushcraft are really "bringing learning to life".

Our clients include individuals and families that have wanted to reconnect to the landscape and our natural heritage with little or no knowledge of bushcraft skills through to experienced outdoor instructors and leaders, educational establishments, schools, colleges, clubs, adventure centres, societies, corporate clients, well known musicians, bands and international celebrities.

Since 2008 we have been working in close partnership with Kent County Council supporting both in school projects, Extended Services, Study Support, Children's University, holiday workshops and also consulting in outdoor education. Over the years Badger Bushcraft has worked with many thousands of children and young people. In a four week period in 2011 we hosted school based workshops for over 700 children and young people and 2012 is already booked to set new record for us as we having a booking to run workshops for over 1,400 kids in September alone!

We have also worked on expeditions in temperate Europe and the challenging environments of Pacific Coast of the United States which included some interesting evening encounters with rattle snakes in the Mojave Desert!

Alongside our scheduled courses we also offer the opportunity to design your perfect and totally bespoke bushcraft, survival, primitive technology or nature based course including only elements and activities that are relevant, of interest and important to you. We also offer a unique Corporate Events & Team Building "Gourmet Bushcraft" event for business clients.

Over recent years mobile bushcraft has become exceptionally popular with some of our client base as we are also kitted out and prepared to come to you, so instead of travelling to one of our farm or woodland sites near our base in the heart of Kent we can pack one of our Land Rovers and travel to your site, school or location. This has proved to be exceptionally popular and for some clients extremely cost effective. We also offer this mobile service for Bushcraft Parties.

Our website and ever expanding Badger Bushcraft Blog and News sections have a lot of information about our work as well as;

• Wild Food
• Out And About
• Flora
• Fauna

• Kit – Tried And Tested
• Books
• Musings
• Friends

What started off as Phil's personal blog with a mainly United Kingdom based following has developed a keen global readership with regular visitors from the United States, Canada, Germany, France, Netherlands, Ireland, Italy, Australia and Romania to name but a few!

We are passionate about what we do and how we do it with all aspects of our business embracing the philosophy that "the difference between ordinary and extraordinary is that little bit extra". The aim and focus of Badger Bushcraft is to tailor make unique learning experiences that are unrivalled and unforgettable, be that a morning, day or week long course.
