~ Foraged Flavours: From Wild Greens to Plate ~
Step into a full-day, hands-on workshop at Mangaroa Farms, just 40 minutes from Wellington with Expert Forager Felicity Joy from Wild Botanica.
You’ll explore seasonal edible wild greens, learning to identify them, discover their properties, and turn your foraged finds into simple, delicious creations. In the farm’s fully equipped kitchen, you’ll make a range of hands-on preparations: fresh wild green spreads, infused butters, vibrant salads, and pickled or preserved treats, all designed to showcase the flavours of the season.
During the day, we’ll enjoy a shared wild feast together, tasting the seasonal dishes you’ve prepared in a relaxed, beautiful farm setting. This workshop is interactive, practical, and sensory, a chance to deepen your foraging skills, connect with nature, and celebrate the flavours of the wild. All ingredients, tools, and guidance are provided, so you can fully immerse yourself in the experience.
Perfect for those who’ve already attended Wild Botanica’s Foraging Workshops, this is the next step: taking your wild plant knowledge into the kitchen. Also suitable for total beginners, no experience needed.
