Step into the landscape and learn to see it differently.

Join me for a guided foraging walk through the beautiful woodland and open spaces of Friston Forest, where we’ll explore the medicinal plants growing all around us at this vibrant time of year.

This is not just a plant identification walk.
It’s an invitation to reconnect with the living world — to understand how the body and the land mirror one another, and how simple plants can support your health in practical, meaningful ways.

During the walk, you will:

  • Learn how to safely identify a range of seasonal wild plants
  • Understand how herbalists work with plants to support digestion, skin, immunity, and the nervous system
  • Begin to see the landscape as a map of medicine
  • Discover how to use what you find in simple, effective remedies at home

There will be time to ask questions, share experiences, and deepen your understanding of herbal medicine in a relaxed and supportive setting.

Whether you are completely new to foraging or looking to deepen your knowledge, you will leave with practical skills, confidence, and a new relationship with the plants around you.

This experience is suitable for beginners as well as those looking to deepen their knowledge of herbal medicine and foraging.

What to expect

A slow, guided walk through woodland and open landscape, stopping regularly to explore plants in detail. Expect a mix of teaching, observation, and conversation.

What to bring

  • Weather-appropriate clothing
  • Comfortable walking shoes
  • Notebook (optional)
  • Water

Important information

  • Exact meeting point details will be sent after booking
  • Spaces are limited to keep the group small and personal
