Please arrive 10 minutes before the start time to allow for introductions and get settled. The walk will start with a safety talk and overview where you can have any questions answered before we begin. We will then head out into the South Downs woodlands to bathe in nature and learn about wild food. We will then make fizzing wild sodas with plants, flowers and berries that we collect.
