Start to look about at hedgerow plants and think how you might be able to use them in salads and stir-fries. A wonderfully local foraging experience in Brighton or an alternative day trip from London.
WHAT'S THIS ALL ABOUT?
We are surrounded by wild plants and herbs, and a surprising amount are edible.
Where to start? How much should you pick? Is it tasty? These questions and many more will be answered on an ‘Urban Forage’, as you take a walk around Brighton’s woods and fields to discover the world of sustainable foraging. The last bit is very important. Only take what you need.
This workshop has a charming subtitle ‘An introduction into our world’, and it really is. Start to look about at hedgerow plants and think how you might be able to use them in salads and stir-fries. This foraging team also supply restaurants and bars in the local Brighton area.
During the 2.5 hours you will be told the plants to avoid, which plants are in season and when, and also get an insight into the general rules and laws that apply to a responsible forager.
This introduction will set you on a path to picking and eating deliciously fresh, free food.
