Putting down roots

A group of happy contented boys working hard in the outdoors doing a bit of planting that required teamwork , co-operation and boy muscle which they certain are in possession of.

Time spent out of doors, being physical whatever the context  be it school, scouts or with fathers independently does wonders for boys and that fact these boys are learning to help grow something they can look after is perfect. 

Dens

A den is something a good number us can recall, that spot removed from where we had come that we could have magical adventures in with friends in the outdoors but protected from the elements.

Some Dens are by design rustic, made of local and found materials others not although they may require assembly but all are a home from home.
