Firemaker Primitive Skills Society
Firemaker Primitive Skills Society is a non-profit organization run entirely by volunteers. Our purpose is to create community-based opportunities for learning, practicing and sharing ancient skills, technology, and the philosophy of honouring and respecting all existence, acknowledging our place in the circle of life. Based out of southern Vancouver Island, Firemaker PSS has a volunteer council, whose members help to organize events, guide the organization and keep the flame alive throughout the year.
Every summer, Firemaker PSS hosts Firemaker, an annual week-long gathering for those interested in nature-based living and primitive skills. At the gathering, knowledgeable instructors share their various skills in a workshop format. A love for low-tech or no-tech ways of living and enjoying the outdoors imbues Firemaker. If this sounds like fun, we encourage you and your family to join us at our gathering. All skill levels are welcome, all ages are part of our community, and Firemaker is always a space of inclusion, cooperation and learning by doing.
