What will we learn?
✦ Identification skills
Sharpen your identification skills and build on the knowledge you already have - you know more than you think.
✦ Sensory learning
We’ll be touching, tasting and smelling lots of wild edible plants, learning where they live and how to find them again.
✦ Poisonous plants?
Learn about poisonous plants too so you can feel confident and safe when you’re out foraging on your own.
✦ Take home what you make
Learn different ways to make herbal medicine and how to find and use the wild plants around you to do this.
✦ Debunk myths, learn facts
With misconceptions fully out there, you can leave with knowledge of how to find reliable information.
✦ A fresh perspective
Even if you’ve been to a green space before, we’ll look in places your eyes might not have wandered before.
