Flavour-Led Foraging Walk, History, Folklore & Wild Food - FUNGI FOCUSED

These sessions are an introduction to foraging for wild flavour in order to teach on the rules and regulations, identification techniques, history & folklore and the risks associated with wild plants, fruits & fungi. Throughout the walk we will identify seasonal ingredients and compare and contrast with their dangerous counterparts as well as discuss many other important topics such as soil health, historical land uses & responsibility if gathering your own ingredients. As well as enjoy a few wild snacks along the way.For each edible plant I will discuss techniques of preservation and ways in which to create tasty wild ingredients that can be used at home. I will follow up with detailed information surrounding what we have seen throughout the walk, links, literature and remain available to answer questions.As humans, our senses were developed first to assist us in hunting and gathering. Our perception of colour helped us pick the ripest fruit and tell the poisonous from the tastiest berries. The powerful link between smell and memory helped us remember those plants we had eaten safely before, and those we had been taught to fear. Your body hasn’t forgotten this: wild plants still provide a vivid and delicious feast for the senses.
