EARTH SKILLS + SURVIVAL EDUCATION

Earth skills are a set of techniques and experiences that encompass everything one needs to survive and thrive in the wilderness without modern conveniences. As the basis for all modern science and technology, these methods were at one time universal and varied based on the cultures in which they were practiced and the natural resources available.
