Join us as we travel through the seasons, exploring the rituals and customs that rooted our ancestors to Nature and the plants that sustained them.
These events will include a wild drink and snack to enjoy at the end of each session. You will take away some plants to wildcraft with at home, along with some instructions, or we may use our finds to craft something together on the day, such as a wild tea, a tasty snack or some cordage.
These will run throughout the year at various locations in and around Glasgow and Oban.
During our session you will learn;
How to forage for wild food, medicine and wild crafting materials safely and sustainably
Foraging and the law
About how to identify a wide variety of wild plants
About how to make wild teas, infusions and tinctures
How to connect with the Earth on a deeper, more meaningful level

Notes
The walk will be slow paced but uphill in some areas and maybe over fields, through woodland and along muddy paths. Please wear sturdy shoes or boots and we highly recommend keeping your legs covered to protect against Nettles, jaggy Brambles and most importantly Ticks.
You may want to bring along something to put some foraged finds into and perhaps a notebook and camera to record what you find. You will receive an email afterwards detailing all of the plants we meet.
Please bring along water and any snacks you may want in addition to the food served after our walk.
Please make sure you bring along a cup for your wild drink and for other members of your party
Please note, we will not be providing food for children under 5 years of age and the food and drink served on the day will be the same for adults and children alike.
