The Main Event

Immerse yourself in the timeless world of nature, its natural remedies, and secret wonders. Refresh your mind and nourish your soul with this two-hour foraging ramble through the wild and untamed beauty of the South Downs.

Step into a world where the land whispers its secrets and every leaf, berry, and mushroom tells a story. Led by expert foragers, scientists, and herbalists, this foraging experience will open your eyes to the edible treasures hidden in plain sight. Discover the folklore, medicinal properties, and culinary uses of wild plants, trees, and fungi as you wander through ancient woodlands, soaking up the magic of the great outdoors.

From the interconnected world of mycelium to the healing properties of hedgerow finds, you’ll gain a new appreciation for nature’s bounty. Learn how to safely identify edible species, avoid toxic lookalikes, and incorporate the gifts of the wild into your everyday life. After this walk, no stroll through the countryside will ever feel the same again—every rustling leaf and hidden sprout will hold a new meaning.

This is more than just a walk—it’s an awakening. Whether you’re shopping for gifts for nature lovers, seeking foraging gifts for an adventurous foodie, or looking for wellness gifts to reconnect with nature, this experience is the perfect choice. It’s a wonderful Christmas or birthday surprise for hikers, herbalists, and those who dream of a simpler, more natural way of life.
