About this event

Travel & Outdoor • Other

Come on our autumnal forage through Haigh Hall woodland park and discover the wild and cultivated plants and the fascinating stories, mythology and folklore surrounding them. On our seasonal foraging walks we will get to grips with some of these plants, some of them edible, some poisonous. You will learn how to identify them, learn about their fascinating ecology, how they fit in the landscape and their edible and medicinal uses. Where possible we will get hands on with the plants and even try some in the field; this is a great way to learn more about the plants around the estate.

Meeting at the Visitor Centre.

Thanks to support from the National Lottery Heritage Fund.
