About the event
Join me for a woodland forage, searching for wild greens, botanicals and edible flowers. We will be sure to find the wonderfully scented sweet woodruff, healing plantain, explore the carrot family, and hopefully early Autumn fungi. Ambling through the trees and alongside the Almond we will explore how to make wild food a staple and the benefits of doing so – from the nutritional to the cultural and philosophical.
Throughout the morning gather the basic skills required to identify common edibles as well as how to avoid poisonous & inedible lookalikes. Learn how to use foraged food and discover what it is like living on a completely wild diet. The walk will last ~3 hours with the opportunity to stay a little later to ask chat and ask questions. Suitable for all ages with children welcome – individual or family tickets. Accessible via public transport and toilets available on site.
For single child tickets please contact me directly.
