The pine tree has a lot to offer the bushcraft enthusiast from a source of vitamin C to a colander! In the first of 3 films, survival expert Sean Collins demonstrates the uses of pine needles and cones in a woodland setting. In subsequent programmmes he talks about pine string and uses for a dead pine tree.

    On the tea: my uncle told me whenever you "cook" anything (heat it), you destroy the vitamins & nutritionl value (that's why he juices vegetables raw). Is this true?

    High heat can destroy some nutrients in some foods - for pine tea this is not a concern.
