Our flagship programme combining challenge, reflection, and team-building in a unique natural setting.
Down to Earth Experience
Our original and most iconic programme, this experience invites your team to slow down and dig deep — carving walking sticks from greenwood, climbing high into the trees, and lighting a fire the old-fashioned way: with skill, focus, and no matches!
Designed for those who like to roll up their sleeves, it blends physical activity with quiet craftsmanship and practical outdoor skills. The day ends with food cooked and shared around the fire — a chance to swap stories and take stock, together.
This is a day for doing — with space to reflect, reconnect, and get grounded in what matters.
Build Trust through the Tree Climb
Encourage teamwork and communication as participants navigate the tree climb. Working together to overcome challenges builds trust and strengthens connections, enhancing both personal and group dynamics.
Promote Wellbeing with Nature and Fire
Gather around a fire to enjoy good food and reflect in nature. The calming atmosphere supports mental wellbeing and fosters a sense of unity and relaxation among participants.
Introduction to Green Woodworking
Engage in the mindful practice of carving walking sticks. This hands-on activity promotes focus, patience, and skill-building, offering a peaceful way to connect with nature and yourself.
Develop New Skills through Hands-On Experience
Encourage growth and learning by engaging in hands-on activities. Whether climbing, carving, or connecting with nature, participants will develop practical skills that boost confidence and provide valuable tools for personal and team development.
"The day at Down to Earth was incredible! The green woodworking was calming, the tree climb challenging yet fun, and learning to light a fire without matches was such a great skill to pick up. Sharing a meal around the fire with the group was the perfect way to wrap up the day. I left feeling more connected to nature and the team – it was a truly memorable experience!"
