A guided walk that weaves together natural history, folklore and myth, revealing the hidden stories rooted in the plants beneath your feet
About this Event

Step into a landscape where petals whisper secrets and paths are rich with old myth and magic. Wildflowers and Witchcraft is a guided walk through the nature that weaves together natural history, folklore and myth, revealing the hidden stories rooted in the plants beneath your feet.

As we wander hedgerows, meadows and woodland edges, you’ll be introduced to the wildflowers that have shaped centuries of belief and practice. Learn how familiar blooms were once used for healing, protection, divination and ritual, and discover their symbolic roles in witchcraft, mythology and rural folklore. From flowers said to ward off evil to plants associated with love spells, fairies and seasonal rites or offerings. Each stop along the way uncovers a fascinating layer of Britain’s mysterious past.

Grounded in landscapes and traditions, this walk blends botany with storytelling, offering insight into how people once understood the natural world and how echoes of those beliefs remain today. No prior knowledge is needed, just curiosity and a willingness to see the countryside through an enchanted lens.

Perfect for nature lovers, folklore enthusiasts and anyone drawn to the mystical, Wildflowers and Witchcraft is a gentle, immersive experience that reconnects land, legend and imagination.
