This half day of wild food foraging is for folks curious about Britain's wild foods, but who have little or no experience & wish to know more. This is experience is very much the first foot on the ladder in exploring the edible wild. Marcus Harrison, who runs the foraging courses, is a UK authority & specialist on wild foods, & from time to time gives talks on the subject at the Natural History Museum. He has given regular wild food walks & talks at the Eden Project, & is involved with teaching survival professionals life-saving foraging skills. & long before wild food & foraging became fashionable, Wild Food School featured on BBC Countryfile, Westcountry TV & the Good Food Channel (' Simon Rimmer's Dinners'), has appeared in The Times, Sunday Express, & other publications like Countryfile Magazine, been involved in numerous BBC Radio broadcasts, & frequently advises TV production companies. On your foraging walk you will be shown how to identify wild edible plants, such as wild garlic, nettles & even daisies as well as learning the different plant facts & recipes that can be made using your findings. Foraging is a great way of understanding the natural world around you, not only will you find food but you may catch a glimpse of deer & other wild animals as well as discovering some new surroundings. You will spend three & a half hours walking around the picturesque countryside with Marcus. He will advise you on edible plants as well as teaching you different plant facts.
