Foraging Hours

This week, Stillgarden Distillery's Social Botanists are going out into the local area's wild spaces in search of some elderflower. Social Botanists are a group of like-minded individuals who help grow botanicals that are used in the distillery, as well as look after the pollinator-friendly wildflower patches, forage ingredients, and rejuvenate neglected spaces. It's a great opportunity to get involved with an environmentally-friendly project, grow plants, and meet other plant enthusiasts. No experience is necessary as our Gardener-in-Residence and forager Connor Howlett will be there to help any beginners get stuck in and sort the edible from the inedible. Great conversation is provided too, as we sit and chat over some refreshments on the distillery terrace after. You can follow the Social Botanist Project on Instagram and Facebook to keep up to date with what's growing in the garden, as well as any upcoming gardening, wildlife walk and wild spirit tasting events we have planned. If you have any questions, feel free to send a direct message on our Instagram, or send [email protected] an email. Sign up to the Social Botanist Project for updates about what we're up to, and a free compostable grow kit (which you can claim by emailing Connor after signing up): https://stillgardendistillery.com/social-botanist-sign-up/.
