Planet South Bank foraging walk, led by local forager Carl Wain

This is the next in a series of Foraging walks, giving the opportunity to enjoy the green space around us and to learn about local edible plants in the area.

This time we will be foraging in Danesmead Wood. We are delighted to be joined by a representative of Friends of Danesmead Wood, to share with us news of the Friends' conservation and community activities.

Meet by 2pm at the seats by the Millennium Bridge, on the Rowntree Park side of the river.

Places are limited to 25 people so that everyone has the opportunity to hear and join in with the discussions. If there are no tickets left, see the dates later in the year (below).

Tickets are entirely free, though if you want to add a donation to cover Planet South Bank's costs that would be very much appreciated.

Dogs welcome, no age restriction - children welcome. Please bear in mind that we will be walking off-path.

The walk will be between one to one and a half hours. For those that wish to meet up afterwards, we will be going to the Winning Post pub on Bishopthorpe Road (refreshments not funded by Planet South Bank).

As the seasons change, so do the plants and those that are available to eat, so having the opportunity to walk through the seasons is a great way to get closer to nature.

Future dates in 2024 are the last Sunday of each month, at 2pm: Sunday 25th August and Sunday 29th September. To receive details of the Eventbrite sign-up for these walks, please sign-up for updates at https://planetsouthbank.org.uk/subscribe-for-updates/
