Winter Wild Foods: Beginners Foraging Walk

In this two hour beginners foraging walk, in collaboration with Jemima Hall, we will forage what is abundant in our natural environment in Winter.

Jemima will introduce you to foraging consciously and sustainably according to the Hunter-Gatherer Way. We will start by identifying some beginners edible foods including leaves, roots, seeds, flowers, mushrooms and trees. We will then discuss our findings and enjoy some wild tea.

We will meet at 1pm at the Saracen Fountain in , Glasgow, G31 3LJ. The walk will last for 2 hours, finishing at 3pm.

All ages are welcome! Free event!

More information about Jemima's previous workshops and art practise can be found on instagram @jemima.e.hall and on her website www.jemimaelisabethhall.com

Food & Climate Action is a project delivered in partnership with 6 organisations in Glasgow and funded by The National Lottery. Our Glasgow East host organisation is The Space.
