Spring Forage & Feast!

🌿 Spring Forage and Feast 🌿

Join us this March for a fantastic initimate foraging experience, and a bespoke menu based on seasonal foods crafted with love and attention.

Take a deep dive into the Spring flavours that are awaiting your discovery. Deepen your connection with nature and your local land by learning about nature's larder which is growing outside your door. Wild Garlic is especially abundant this time of year, scenting the air with a delicously garlicy smell. It's a wonderful Spring green that is a fanstastic addition to your kitchen and your diet. You will be able to sustainably and mindfully forage a good harvest of Wild Garlic to take home with. As well as other Spring greens, flowers, and possibly mushrooms(if the fungi gods smile upon us!) Relax afterwards with a delicious three course meal using wild, foraged food - some you will now recognise from the walk!

🚶 Foraging Walk – We will be meeting at "Suds & Soda" and taking a moderate, gentle 2.5 hour walk to and back from Markeaton Park or Darley Park (whichever is more abundant on the day). Through the walk we will help you develop your connection with nature as well as yourself. Changing how you see the world around you and how you interact with it.

🌱 Learn to Identify – Discover how to safely identify edible plants, flowers, and fungi and how to distinguish them from any potentially harmful lookalikes. At the core of foraging is safety which relies on the ability to successfully identifying each plant or fungus. We will not only arm you with the knowledge of what we encounter on the day, but also nurture your ability to continue your own learning and stay a safe and satisfied forager.

🍜 Foraged Feast – End the day by enjoying a delicious bespoke 3 course meal full of seasonal foraged goodness:

Starter: Canapés of pickled Scarlet Elf Cups with triple Wild Garlic pesto, Slate Bolete crackers with St. George's mushroom pate, and Wild Garlic hummus on Blackening Polypore pancake.
