Tom Brown III

Tom Brown III (T3) is a lifelong student and practitioner of primitive living skills and wilderness survival. Tom grew up learning ancestral skills from his father, Tom Brown Jr, who founded the Tracker Wilderness Survival School. This upbringing showed him the profound effect of reconnecting people to nature.

Tom lives in Oregon and is the founder of FutureNature and T3photography. He is also a passionate photographer, writer, fly-fisherman and traditional archer. We are delighted to have Tom as one of our main contributors and team members.

More important than anything else to me is the grasp I think I can have over what is being taught here, meaning it's presented in such a way, not only do I remember it, but can see myself doing it without anxiety or rather, with assurance and confidence that I can get it done and put this knowledge to use, instead of worrying about my proficiency, etc. I can not recommend this class highly enough and have told all my friends and family and anyone else who will listen about it. Just learning about a book Tom mentioned ('You're Not Sick, You're Thirsty, Don't Treat Thirst with Medication'), changed my and other people's lives I told about it. Drink water and take Tom's classes - they are life changing and will improve your life immeasurably.

I have taken a few primitive skills classes before, and not only were Tom's lessons are a perfect refresher, but they are so so much more. They taught me so many new points, and also reminded me of all the skills I had completely forgotten from my in-person classes. I also wanted to add, that the very structure of the lessons were presented in such a clear and simple way, that, with some practice, I feel I could survive my first 72 hours and much much longer.

I've never thought of preparing for survival as I've always had guides, however thinking about it, if something happened to the guide I'd be in big trouble. This has been a good introduction and I'll be more prepared in future.
