About the event

Wild Food & Forage Day Workshop
Spend a day learning to identify edible wild foods, taking a leisurely foraging walk with our qualified ethnobotanist and Chief Instructor Graham Couling. We will take a walk of discovery as we see what the hedgerows, fields and woodlands have to offer before returning to our camp where we will put the cook fire to good use and try the food we have identified and gathered on our walk.

The day is based at our woodland camp in Bayford Herts. We will meet a range of plants and learn to identify those which are edible and of course the toxic ones we need to avoid including the plant attributed with killing more people than any other Hemlock (Conium maculatum), which can be mistaken for members of the carrot family, particularly Cow Parsley.

We will seek out and edible roots, seeds, leaves, flowers, and fungi depending on what is available at the time of year, learn the essential identification characteristics of each species we encounter and then put the wild flavours to the test back in camp.

The day runs from 0930-1630, and as we will be out for a good part of the day you will need to bring a drink bottle and packed lunch. Teas, coffee, water and biscuits will be supplied at our camp.

Spaces are limited so book early to avoid disappointment. £90 per person.
