Join us on a foraging course and learn all about Nature’s Bountiful Larder!

These shorter courses have been designed to help you to utilise the edible wild foods that can be found on your very own doorstep, at a much reduced ticket price.

Situated on top of the Kent Downs in an area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, you’ll find a private and beautiful woodland, designated as a local wildlife site and brimming over with nature.

We will be gathering for this course at East Woodlands Village Hall on the edge of Selwood Forest, a beautiful area in the Somerset countryside.

Ashton under Hill is a lovely little village in the Wychavon district of Worcestershire. We will meet at the Star Inn, a friendly country pub in idyllic surroundings before heading off to discover what the area has to offer.

Notgrove is a beautiful Cotswold village, with rolling hillsides and various species of mature trees. The various environments around the village allow for plenty of flora and fungi to flourish.  

The UK’s leading gardening charity aims to enrich everyone’s life through plants, making the UK a greener and more beautiful place. This makes Hutton-in-the-Forest a very special place to visit and forage!

The Peak District is incredibly rich in edible wild plants and mushrooms, making this one of our favourite locations to host our courses from.

Comer Woods is part of the beautiful Dudmaston Estate, on the outskirts of Bridgnorth. The perfect mix of pine, beech, ancient trees and well established meadows, allow for a diverse range of plants and mushrooms to grow throughout the year.

The arboretum here contains vintage Yews and exotic Victorian trees, including ‘the most magnificent collection of cedars in the British Isles’. We expect to find a good number of associated fungi in the Autumn.
