Autumn Foraging (EAST SUSSEX)
Join Alice Betony at Wowo campsite in East Sussex for a wonderful day of Foraging.
In the morning we will fill our baskets with berries, maybe nuts and the last of the wild greens, meeting a wide range of plants, learning some basic botany and plant ID features along the way. In the afternoon we will gather around the fire and turn our harvests into a range of delicious food to share and medicines to take home.
