About this Event
Our day will start with Zoe’s revitalising yoga. After some wild herbal tea and a snack, forager Trudy Turrell will guide a wild food foraging adventure across the organic meadows at Carswell Farm.
From nutrient-rich nettles to liver-loving dandelions, lymphatic-supporting cleavers to cleansing wild garlic; the focus will be on de toxifying plants that can be foraged to cook and create a nourishing meal to eat together on the day. You may also be surprised about the medicinal qualities of some very everyday plants which grow all around us and there will be an opportunity to see how they can be blended with natural oils to create botanical balms to take away.
This day is for everyone, even if you are new to foraging or yoga, this is a chance to connect and heal with nature. Please wear loose fitting clothes that are easy to move around in, bring warm and waterproof clothing and suitable footwear for outside walking on uneven ground.
Due to the terrain, there is very limited access for anyone with mobility impairments.
We are sorry but we are unable to accommodate dogs for this event. Why not make a weekend of it and stay in one of our holiday cottages, dotted around Carswell Farm. Visit: www.carswellholidays.com

Words by Trudy Turrell
"I have been fascinated by wild foods for most of my life. Working in conservation in South Devon for 20 years gave me the privilege to explore the hidden valleys, coastline, estuaries and woodlands and experience nature daily at first hand. I love to use wild food in favourite recipes and explore ways of preserving it. Sharing knowledge and good food together is a fabulous way to spend time in nature. I have led foraging events for the National Trust, South Devon Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, Deer Wood Trust, Ackerll’s Rewilding Project and for families and celebrations. I have led forages at Carswell Farm for Newton Ferrers Primary School for several years. Now, thanks to the owners, I have the chance to share the wild riches of over a thousand acres of carefully managed organic land and seashore with you. "
