To be able to recognize the knowledge we all need a level of social wellness. Therefore, we also try to contribute to a balance in life so that we all together can start taking a bigger responsibility when it comes to managing our nature.

We get inspired by other environmental conscious actors in the business and try to encourage our partners in making conscious choices when developing their businesses.

Below you’ll find more examples of how Jonas Vildmark Bushcraftcenter is actively caring for nature and the environment.

 

QUALITY

Jonas Vildmark Bushcraftcenter always prioritize high quality in our services and products. We want our customers to efficiently absorb our knowledge in a creative and pleasant way. High quality makes this process easier which leads to more satisfied customers that get inspired to develop their life in a more sustainable way.

 

LEAVE NO TRACE

We want to enter nature with respect by showing that we care about natures all individuals; plants, wildlife and man. It should be natural to all of us to strive towards not disturbing or destroy our surroundings. Therefore, we always strive to not making noise and not harvesting more from nature than the mission needs. We always want to leave the place we have visited in the best shape possible when it comes to traces and garbage.

 

TRAVELING & TRANSPORTS

Travels and transports in conjunction with our events is something inevitable that effect the environment. However, we always evaluate environmental effect, time and cost when planning, booking and executing our travels. Events that don’t need materials transported by car we try to reach by train or other public transport. We always encurange our customers to use public transport or carpool when traveling to our events. All with the mindset of making as little impact on the environment CO2-vice.

 

WASTE & RECYCLING

We constantly try to eliminate unnecessary waste, in the kitchen, around the campfire, building shelter, time planning or around the office. When excess material occurs in our business, we firstly try to make use of it somewhere else in our delivery process. Secondly, we recycle the material at certified recycling stations.

When it comes to time waste in planning and logistics, we must be as realistic as possible to be able to deliver a relaxed and creative event in the end. This is a balance that we passionately always strive for so that both customer and we can enjoy both planning, executing and experiencing the event.

According to us; Bushcraft is the total opposite of the By-and-Throwaway-mentality. We celebrate high quality products that can easily be maintained and passed on for generations. For instance, tools that can help us all taking care of wood and game in an efficient way to eliminate disrespectful waste.

 

MAINTENANCE

All our training gear used out in the field like; cases, bags, tools, containers, blankets, sleeping bags, ropes, lamps and hunting gear are frequently being maintained by ourselves This of course so that you as a customer shall feel safe and comfortable during the event but also for us to get the most out of a product before an eventual recycling of the object.

 

FOOD

Vildmarkskaffe (Wilderness Coffee) is the part of Jonas Vildmark Bushcraftcenter handling all food, Fika and catering. When possible, we always choose locally produced and ecological ingrediencies in our cooking. We are constantly developing our homesteads’ garden to enhance the customers clean, healthy and rich taste experience. We awoid trowaway articles containing plastic. Any plastic containers used for hygienical reasons is thoroughly washed and reused as far as possible before recycled. Our concept is to if possible, use steel forks and knives together with ceramic plates and glass cups in a sustainable way. Excess food we try to distribute to where it’s needed or compost it.

 

CONSTANT DEVELOPMENT

We always keep our eyes and ears piled for new exiting ways of developing our processes to gain an as high as possible environmental awareness. If you have any creative feedback you would like to share with us that you think would develop our environmental engagement further, please let us know.
