About this Event
A forage in Grin Low woods at Pools Cavern, Buxton where you will learn about things we can forage. Not just mushrooms... though they are the gourmet delight we want to find. This is a lovely mixed habitat of woodland with moorland at the top of the hill where we are expecting to find colorful waxcaps and possible some of the more 'interesting' species.
We will sample some wild gins at the start of the course to give you a taste of wild edible things, with non alcohol versions for youngsters or anyone not wanting the to drink.
You'll get to choose a staff, the foragers friend, and then we're off into the woods. The ground can be slippery and muddy and it might rain, please wear boots or wellies and bring waterproofs. The plan is to forage enough treats for a fry up and mushroom butty at the end, but bring something to nibble on for your lunch. We will stop somewhere nice for a bite part way through the forage.
What to bring: Boots. Waterproofs. Your own staff, knife and basket if you have them. Lunch. Anyone in Halloween fancy dress will the star of the show :D
Don't worry about printing tickets, I'll have your name on my list once you've booked.
Please check out my other events, I'll be around the North West, North East, and the Peaks over the Autumn season.
Looking forward to seeing you soon, Col :D
