Blue Sky World Woodcraft is not a formal organisation.  It comprises of people and organisations inspired by Ernest Thompson Seton’s principles of Woodcraft.

Participant organisations include Woodcrafters from around the world, Boy Scouts, Girl Guides, and Bushcrafters.  Participant individuals are passionate about keeping the principles of Woodcraft and admirers of Seton’s artwork and books.

We firmly believe that differences are what strengthens us and gives us inspiration. What unites us are the laws of the Fourfold path of Woodcraft.

The aim of this website is to interconnect and engage people interested and involved with Woodcraft. We hope that people will submit news and photos here and share their ideas and inspirations on the blog.

Blue Sky!
