Foraging Walks and
Farm Tours

Nature is abundant with food, medicine & more yet we have forgotten our ancient ways of working with the botanical and fungal relatives growing all around us. Learning about wild foods takes time and focus but in the process we are rewarded with greater health, happiness, resilience and connection to the natural world.

During these workshops we will discuss topics such as:

  • Plant & mushroom Identification

  • How to harvest sustainably and prepare different wild edible foods throughout the seasons

  • Basics of botany, mycology, field herbalism and medicinal preparations

  • Planting & propagation techniques

  • Agroforestry practices

  • Temperate ecology & more
