Day courses last approximately 8hrs and include a foraged themed lunch cooked on a campfire. These courses are hands on and will involve harvesting of wild species for food, drink and medicine.
A full day course focussing on plant based foraging. At this time of year there are an abundance of plants in flower or fruiting and this makes it an ideal time to nail down a lot of plant id with specimens showing you their true colours and full suite of features! The day will be split between harvesting and processing activities.
Set at the picturesque Kidbrooke Park, a stones throw from the Ashdown Forest this course will introduce you to the abundance of spring time plants. You will get to explore the many and varied habitats at this location under the guidance of experienced forager James Grant. James will show you how to approach the subject of foraging in a safe and fun manner considering plant families and features to get you started exploring summer wild foods.
The day is split into four sessions with two 30 minute brew breaks and 1 hour for lunch.
