About
The BIPOC friction fire workshop is an overnight experience to learn and practice the art of fire birthing. The group will participate in a land walk to identify trees and other materials to make a bow drill kit. Participants will learn carving techniques and knife safety and begin carving their own bow drill kit. Â We will spend our second day together fine tuning our kits, learning about tinder and fire lays, and working on getting a coal.
We will end our first day together with a potluck dinner. Participants are responsible for bringing their own food. Please bring enough for lunch and dinner on day #1 and breakfast and lunch on day #2.
This entire program is held outside.
Day #1 harvesting materials and carving
Day #2 tinder bundles and practice getting a coal
