wild food & foraging workshop spring online

The abundance of wild food in Spring is here! Get a head start on your foraging season and walk the wild food trail.

Want to find wild food in your local patch? Join our monthly workshops online, with James & Lea from Woodland Classroom. Enjoy finding, harvesting and cooking with wild food every month during our online workshops.

May has arrived and there are a whole host of new wild foods coming into their own this month, including several trees we can start munching on. We can feast on wild greens to our heart’s content and use them in so many creative ways in our cooking. It’s also the month to be on the lookout for the secret Pignut, one of our personal favourites. There’s so much good stuff to be found in May and we want to help you make the most of it. We’re also excited to be welcoming our Special Guest Speaker for this month; Andrew Price, Head Bushcraft Instructor at Dryad Bushcraft and Presenter of ITV’s Coast & Country.

Our online foraging workshops have been a smash hit, as people want to learn how to make tasty, healthy food from the wild plants around them.

In this workshop you will also get seasonal foraging tips from Special Guest Speakers from the world of wild food, bushcraft and outdoor cooking.

A ticket costs just £7. These events are selling quickly, so grab your place whilst you can 🙂 Everyone has loved these workshops so far and they’ve been really popular.

 

YOUR WORKSHOP INCLUDES:

* Seasonal Foraging Tips for Late-Spring

* Trees You Can Eat

* Wild Food Recipes

* How To Pickle & Preserve Wild Food

* Special Guest Speaker: Andrew Price from Dryad Bushcraft

* Q&A Session

With our workshops you can learn at your own pace. Join just one workshop or join us every month, you decide. There’s no commitment from you to attend every month.

Did you know that YOU can be part of the workshop too. We’re inviting all our online students to chime in with their foraging experiences during lockdown, recipe successes and failures, and any tips you have yourself to share with the class. We would love to hear from you. So, if you have something you want to share, send us an email at hey@woodlandclassroom.com We might even ask you to showcase your creation for the rest of the class as a guest speaker.

Your wild food workshop will last 1hr 15 mins and will be hosted via Zoom. Following the session there will be extra time for an open Q&A with your hosts and guest speaker. Once you book into the workshop an email will be sent you a few days before the event with details of how to access the webinar on Zoom.

 

HOW TO BOOK – VERY IMPORTANT!

The cost is £7, this is not per person though, only per household. So feel free to cram as many family members around the screen as you can 🙂

Once you have your ticket, we will follow up with an email for you which includes the Zoom meeting link and entry password. This will be a couple of days before the event. So, look out for that.

Please note, tickets are non-refundable.

Your Tutors: James & Lea Kendall

James is the Head Bushcraft Instructor at Woodland Classroom, having worked in environmental education & conservation for over 10 years. James’ approach to teaching  steers his students toward fostering a deeper connection with nature through understanding the landscape around us; “Bushcraft skills are an effective way to do this as we learn how to make use of natural materials and live lightly with the land, whilst also connecting with our own ancient past by seeing the land through the eyes of our ancestors.”

Lea is a qualified Counsellor and Mindfulness in a Woodland Setting practitioner. She is a firm believer in the power of nature to be therapeutic for everyone. Lea is an active forager, passionate about how we can use common plants for both food and medicine. She enjoys making her own tinctures and medicinal remedies for treating common ailments.
