Bunting, based in Bristol and known for over two decades of guided sessions in places such as Avon Gorge and Hampstead Heath, combines hands-on identification of edible plants, trees and fungi with broader themes of self-reliance and environmental stewardship.The session explores bushcraft survival skill. It covers traditional medicinal uses of native plants such as nettle, elder, yarrow, dandelion and meadowsweet, while clearly distinguishing these folk applications from modern medical advice. Participants learn about wild soaps derived from saponin-rich species. Cultivation and sustainable picking techniques emphasise the “leave plenty” principle, modest harvesting from abundant populations, clean cuts that encourage regrowth, and avoidance of rare or protected species.Attention is given to indigenous human habitats and landscapes, the post-glacial history of sites like Hampstead Heath, and the ecological roles of native vegetation. Poisonous plants—including hemlock water-dropwort, deadly nightshade, foxglove and poison hemlock—are identified so that foragers can recognise and avoid them. Food processing and preservation methods such as drying, freezing, fermenting and safe handling of berries, greens and mushrooms are demonstrated. The walk also addresses climate-change adaptation through resilient local food systems, the principles of rewilding (restoring natural processes and trophic interactions), and practical techniques for seed collection, storage, autumn sowing and hardwood cuttings of suitable native trees and shrubs.Groups remain small, prioritising observation, ethical practice and connection with urban-adjacent wild spaces.Kids (15 or under) go free.Wear seasonal clothing (an all weather event).Moderate fitness required.Dogs welcome.Session I: 12:00 - 13:30Meet at corner of South Hill Park and South End Road under the trees(Hampstead Heath Station NW3 2QD)Session II: 14:00 - 15:30Meet at Hampstead War Memorial(Jack Straws Castle NW3 7ET).Contact 07935 986 421 if lost or delayed.Email heathbunting@irational.org for group bookings. https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events8/banners/62b9ee10-a90c-11f1-a4a1-eb59356bc08b-rimg-w1110-h740-dc182808-gmir.jpg https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events4/banners/62e98990-a90c-11f1-a4a1-eb59356bc08b-rimg-w1132-h740-dc787848-gmir.jpg https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events6/banners/631bbd20-a90c-11f1-a4a1-eb59356bc08b-rimg-w1100-h740-dc080808-gmir.jpg https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events6/banners/63325260-a90c-11f1-a4a1-eb59356bc08b-rimg-w1045-h740-dc385838-gmir.jpg https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events7/banners/6373ef40-a90c-11f1-a4a1-eb59356bc08b-rimg-w1110-h740-dc080808-gmir.jpg https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events4/banners/63aa4180-a90c-11f1-a4a1-eb59356bc08b-rimg-w1112-h740-dc080808-gmir.jpg https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events9/banners/63e50090-a90c-11f1-a4a1-eb59356bc08b-rimg-w938-h740-dc080808-gmir.jpg https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events3/banners/64242c70-a90c-11f1-a4a1-eb59356bc08b-rimg-w1093-h740-dcf8f8f8-gmir.jpg https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events2/banners/64362dd0-a90c-11f1-a4a1-eb59356bc08b-rimg-w1110-h740-dc383808-gmir.jpg https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events1/banners/64799f70-a90c-11f1-a4a1-eb59356bc08b-rimg-w1071-h740-dc181818-gmir.jpg - **Event URL**: https://allevents.in/london/september-hampstead-heath-london-wild-food-foraging-foragers-walk/100001997613886910 - **Event Categories**: kids, remembrance-day, dog - **Slot details of has slots**: - **Interested Audience**: - total_interested_count: 0 - **Event Highlights**: - Duration: 4 hours - Location: Hampstead Heath - Languages: English ## Ticket Details - **Ticket Price Range**: min: 22.38, max: 22.38, currency: GBP ## Event venue details - **city**: London - **state**: EN - **country**: United Kingdom - **location**: Hampstead Heath - **lat**: 51.5608294 - **long**: -0.1629416 - **full address**: Hampstead Heath, Hampstead Heath, London, United Kingdom ## Event gallery - **Alt text**: September Hampstead Heath (London) Wild Food Foraging/ Foragers Walk. - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events8/banners/1a0730dac8c127abbace99b1f66d8a4d66408c86867e540c8215a1373c7c0d70-rimg-w1200-h594-dc08f808-gmir.jpg?v=1787078149 ## FAQs - **Q**: When and where is September Hampstead Heath (London) Wild Food Foraging/ Foragers Walk. being held? - **A:** September Hampstead Heath (London) Wild Food Foraging/ Foragers Walk. takes place on Sun, 06 Sep, 2026 at 12:00 pm to Sun, 06 Sep, 2026 at 04:00 pm at Hampstead Heath, Hampstead Heath, London, United Kingdom. - **Q**: Who is organizing September Hampstead Heath (London) Wild Food Foraging/ Foragers Walk.? - **A:** September Hampstead Heath (London) Wild Food Foraging/ Foragers Walk. is organized by Heath Bunting. - **Q**: Who is this event for?
