Herbal walk

Doune Community Woodland Group

Come along and join professional storyteller and herbalist Amanda Edmiston (<A HREF="http://www.botanicafabula.co.uk/" TARGET="_blank" DATA-MSYS-CLICKTRACK="0" REL="nofollow noopener noreferrer">www.botanicafabula.co.uk</A>) on a free herbal walk on Saturday 10th September from 10.30-11.30(ish) at Doune Ponds. 
This morning walk will involve a variety of elements: a spot of plant identification and foraging, a look at simple traditional herbal remedies found growing in our local area with tips on how to prepare them, plus a sprinkling of history and folklore, some taste testers from the woods and a chance to hear some of the stories that connect them all. 
Amanda is also keen to hear your memories and anecdotes of plant uses, as she is currently developing a project designed to share our botanical heritage with local schools, community groups and as part of an online resource.
The walk is suitable for adults, although older children are welcome too, and as spaces are limited you must book in advance via our free EventBrite page:  
Guidelines:  
- Dress for the Scottish outdoors!  
- Bring small containers (bags, glass jars or plastic tubs are all ideal), and  a pen or labels to label your finds 
- You might also want to bring some light gloves in case of nettles and thorns!
This walk has been funded by the Forestry Commission Scotland Community Seedcorn Fund via the Doune Community Woodland Group. For more information on our group please visit our Facebook page - https://www.facebook.com/DouneCommunityWoodlandGroup
