Pay what you can foraging walk

from £5.00

Life is getting increasingly expensive, and we know how difficult it is to get by with rising bills, food costs and fuel prices.

We don’t think affordability should be a barrier to food accessibility, so we have introduced a ‘pay what you can’ voucher for our foraging courses, starting at only £5.

If you are feeling generous and can afford to, please donate more. This allows us to invite those who cannot afford any courses to come and enjoy nature's bounty, too.

How it works:

  1. Purchase your ‘pay what you can ticket’

  2. Choose a date you’d like to come, and fill it in from the booking form

  3. Megan will be in touch closer to the time to provide the details of where to go and what to bring.

  4. Enjoy your foraging course!

No walk you take will ever be the same again.

  • As much as we love your furry friends, they unfortunately do not love foraging! We do not allow dogs on our walks due to them getting frustrated with standing still, slow walking speeds and not getting the true attention they deserve. There are also dangers of them eating poisonous plants and fungi that we are waving around and making look extremely interesting. For the sake of your own sanity and the safety of your fur babies we recommend you leave your pooches at home.

  • We recommend a minimum age of 16 on our courses as we do talk about very complex scientific topics, touch on adult situations (such as illicit drug use through history) and we all handle extremely toxic and deadly specimens while out. If you think your child will absolutely love the course and are mature enough please get in contact and we can assess case-by-case but otherwise check out our brand-new family-friendly foraging courses!

  • We head off into the wilderness of the forests and hedgerows where it is unfortunately not accessible with steep hills, rocky ground and wayward roots. Please do get in contact with us if you have any accessibility needs and we can see what we can do and if we have sites that are more suitable.

  • We like to operate in smaller groups usually 6-12 people. This means that we can communicate effectively with everybody, all the foragers can see and hear the important information and there is the least amount of impact on the environments we are foraging in.
