Wander: Foraging with Gourmet Gatherings
Meadow, estuary and hedgerow foraging - kids go free
Service Description
If your experience of foraging has been blackberry picking and you would love to know more about the edible world around us then this experience is for you. Chloe of Gourmet Gatherings is a full time forager and she will share with us her passion teaching us how to find, identify, sustainably harvest and use every wild ingredient you encounter, in delicious food and drink recipes, as well as detailing their folklore, medicinal and nutritional benefits. Prepare to be amazed by the incredible flavours surrounding us in the wild from fabulous fungi to mind blowing hedgerow, meadow and estuary fruits, nuts, seeds, roots, spices, flowers, salad leaves, vegetables and more. This 1.5 hour walk is along the incredibly rich and biodiverse site along the Severn Estuary, close to Chepstow, covering meadow & hedgerow species as well as estuarine species along the shore. You can expect to be introduced to a myriad of edible species on any given day of the year, with diverse, exciting and surprising flavours which we will nibble on as we meander.
