Wild Food Forage and Feast – Midsummer Wild Blossom Supper

Celebrate Midsummer exploring the hedgerows and meadows of coastal Carswell Farm to forage for wild greens, salad plants and edible blossoms. Led by Forager Trudy Turrell, you’ll learn how to forage for summer wild foods, then cook up a magical wild supper to share together. Salads, a savoury, wildflower fritters, cakes, wild teas and a nip of wild spirit is on the menu!

Due to the nature of Carswell Farm, this forage isn’t suitable for anyone with mobility impairment and no dogs.

Please bring suitable footwear/clothing for walking across fields and coast paths. Water bottle and snacks.

Words by Trudy Turrell

"I have been fascinated by wild foods for most of my life. Working in conservation in South Devon for 20 years gave me the privilege to explore the hidden valleys, coastline, estuaries and woodlands and experience nature daily at first hand. I love to use wild food in favourite recipes and explore ways of preserving it. Sharing knowledge and good food together is a fabulous way to spend time in nature. I have led foraging events for the National Trust, South Devon Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, Deer Wood Trust, Ackerll’s Rewilding Project and for families and celebrations. I have led forages at Carswell Farm for Newton Ferrers Primary School for several years. Now, thanks to the owners, I have the chance to share the wild riches of over a thousand acres of carefully managed organic land and seashore with you. "
