Summer Foraging Walk - Brighton

Do you want to learn about foraging? Learn how to identify edible plants to use in your kitchen at home (and poisonous plants to avoid), increase your knowledge of your local landscape and add more variety and nutrition to your diet?

If so then join wild food guide and cook Mike Cutting on this guided walk in Brighton's Wild Park on the edge of the South Downs. On this walk we will examine many species of wild plants and get ideas on how to safely identify and use them, based on Mike's extensive experience in the field and in the kitchen.

Summer is the time for wild flowers, seeds and fruits which can make delicious additions to your diet as well as bringing medicinal and nutritional alue. This unique chalk grassland habitat is home to a huge variety of wild plants. On this walk you will meet wild parsnip, raspberry, mugwort, st John's wort, wild brassicas, and many more besides.

As part of the experience you will have the chance to try a selection of individually prepared wild treats containing a variety of fresh and preserved wild foods including pickles, ferments, wild herb pesto, freshly cooked fritters, wild green cakes and more besides.
