    Essex novice bushcraft

    hello you lovely bunch i am 24yrs and a beginner in the area of bushcraft but have a deep urge needing to camp/forage i live in the Leigh on sea area i love the idea of living on the land but if your familiar with the area its mostly open farm land with very little forest mostly parks and country parks/nature reserves, Where would it be ideal to camp thats local to me because i haven't come up with any ideas on where to begin or who to ask and most of the woodland areas have regular footprints and alot of fallen trees so high risk of a tree falling on me, please dont hesitate to give ideas

    we are lucky to live on such a planet please respect earth and earth will respect you and remember leave no trace...
