Featuring wild venison from the Hinton Admiral Estate, this memorable full day is guided by our expert team led by professional forager and fire cook Lee Morton (Instagram @fire_food_knives) and a very special guest chef.
For this exclusive showcase, Lee and the team bring decades of combined experience in fire cooking along with deep knowledge of foraging and game.
