About this Event
Half Day Foraging - Mugdock Country Park
Guided hedgerow and woodland foraging walk with wild food tasters!
This Wild Adventure leads us to a deeper understanding of sustainable foraging practice by exploring wilder places and learning to recognise and fully appreciate wild abundance.
Foraging and Folklore events include:
- Guidance to develop your plant and fungi ID skills
- Advice to spark your creativity and confidence to use wild ingredients for delicious recipes and traditional remedies at home.
- Tales from folklore to help to secure plants and mushrooms firmly in your imagination
- Samples of wild food and foraged treats to engage all of your senses for maximum recall of each wild wonder!
- Guidance on books, kit and other resources to develop your foraging skills
We walk at a gentle pace, stopping to notice and examine the plants and fungi that we find. The session includes a break roughly half-way through to relax and recap over a cup of wild herbal tea or cordial. At the end of the session we will go over our finds and discuss further reading and alternative sources of information.
