During this 3-hour walk, you will:

🌿 Learn to safely identify 6–8 common edible plants growing in the park.

🌿 Discover the best ways to forage responsibly, with respect for nature and local habitats.

🌿 Hear fascinating facts about the history, folklore, and traditional uses of wild foods.

WHAT TO BRING.

To help you get the most out of your foraging adventure, here’s what we recommend you pack:

✔️ Comfy, sturdy shoes — we will be exploring natural paths and woodland trails.

✔️ Weather-ready clothes — rain or shine, nature doesn’t stop (and neither do we). Layers are your friend!

✔️ A reusable water bottle — stay hydrated while we hunt for wild treats.

✔️ A pen — you’ll get a notebook to record your discoveries, so bring a pen to jot down all those wild facts.
