Based in Livingston (easily accessible via public transport from Edinburgh)About this EventJoin me for a foraging walk, searching for wild greens, botanicals and edible fungi. In the spring we will be sure to find the beautiful few flowered leek, wild garlic, explore the carrot family &amp; could even find some monstrous Japanese knotweed. Summer walks will examine the carrot family in flower, as well as medicinals such as yarrow and plantain. In the autumn we will also discover fungi such as oysters, dryads saddle and giant polypore.Ambling through the trees and alongside the Almond we will explore how to make wild food a staple and the benefits of doing so - from the nutritional to the cultural and philosophical. Throughout the morning gather the basic skills required to identify common edibles as well as how to avoid poisonous &amp; inedible lookalikes. We will also collect a little of the wild garlic and leek to take home and try, so do bring a tupperware or brown bag.The walk should last ~3 hours with the opportunity to stay a little later to ask chat and ask questions. We will meet outside the visitor center, where icecream and snacks are available. Suitable for all ages with children welcome - individual or family tickets. As we will finish by the playpark, this is the ideal loction for keen young foragers. Accessible via public transport.Under 5s are free to attend, and older child tickets are £5. To purchase these please contact me directly.

                "description": "Forager & Wild Food Consultant based in Livingston with eight years experience of leading walks. I offer workshops aiming to help people build skills in identification, whether beginning their foraging journey or growing their knowledge.Walks last approximately three hours, with groups no larger than 12 participants, and look at a range of wild plants and fungi that are in season. We will discuss identification, possible look-a-likes including similar poisonous and toxic plants or mushrooms. With everyday use in mind, we will discuss how to cook foods as well as how to store them. We also look at how to forage mindfully and become caretakers of the environment. As such, so not to put undue pressure on the ecosystem, group courses do not include collection of ingredients, although we will taste edible plants.People of all ages are welcome on walks - children particularly are excellent at spotting different species. Ensuring walks are accessible is particularly important to me, and locations have been chosen with this in mind. If you have any particular requirements please do get in touch and I would be happy to advise on which route will meet your needs, and make any alterations to help you attend.Find - Forage - Ferment"
