Foraging at The Community Farm | Chew Magna | Multiple Dates

from £0.00

Forage @ The Community Farm, Chew.

10am - 12.30pm

Join Leah for a foraging walk at Chew Magna's stunning Community Farm, as we forage through the seasons and discover the abundance of wild food and medicine growing around us. From the Spring greens which help re-invigorate our bodies after a long Winter, to the edible flowers and seeds of Summer and through to the fruit laden hedgerows of early Autumn.

Leah will guide you on a walk around the farm where you will explore the abundance of wild food the land has to offer. Learn about the edible, medicinal and practical applications of the plants, trees and fungi we discover along the way. You will be shown how to safely and sustainably identify and gather wild food, whilst getting hands on and exploring with your senses and learning how to use these ingredients.

There will be plenty of hints and tips on how to use the ingredients we find, as well as learning some fascinating folklore about them.

This walk will help you to connect to the environment around you and empower you to go on and learn more. It will be an exploration of the senses as we discover natures abundance.

Soak up all this new knowledge while absorbing your picturesque surroundings, from the farm to Chew Lake.

“A wonderful afternoon of foraging with Leah at The Community Farm in Chew Valley! I was amazed to learn how accessible foraging is wherever you are. It's made me keen to learn so much more!”

“Leah was a fantastic host with endless knowledge of foraging. I have learnt a lot and left with book recommendations to build on that new knowledge. Highly recommend the experience.”

“Leah our guide was friendly and knowledgeable with a good sense of humour which worked perfectly with our intimate group. We all felt we could learn questions and got loads out of the walk. Amazing foraging activity - highly recommended!”
