DURATION: 5 hours (approx 4 hours of foraging and 1 hours preparing and eating your wild feast) Forage Box like to keep some elements a surprise for the day, but here is what you can expect from your foraging workshop: - a short introduction regarding the safety and format of the day - discussions around foraging tips, safety, ethics, etiquette, sustainability and the law - a circular walking route taking in different growing environments around the site. Expect a route of around 2-3km predominantly on footpaths - a closer look at edible wild species and any poisonous lookalikes by a professional forager - a chance to slow the pace of modern life down, meet new people and immerse yourself in a soul-nourishing activity, reconnecting with nature and discovering new flavours - small tasters of wild food, drinks and other preserves - this includes freshly-picked items straight from the wild as we look to find the ingredients that will work best in your meal
