Summer foraging & wildcrafting day, + drinks & snacks Frome/ Bruton

Around the Summer Solstice is a special time to forage as plants are full of solar energy! We'll go for a walk around Batcombe woods and fields foraging as we go. We will focus on rose, elderflower, edible flowers and other key summer herbs. Maybe some wild strawberries too! Please bring foraging basket or bag. We'll then head to my home for some drinks and snacks and to make some delicious recipes:

• Solstice Sun tea with various plants and edible flowers
• Rose salt
• Elderflower summer vinegar

You get to try other summer wildcrafted treats and then take home two wildcrafted recipes to try, and a full handout with recipes.

"The Foraging Workshop was a very enjoyable experience. Whilst harvesting seasonal edible and healing plants in the sunny woods and fields, we were given much information by Joanna - who is extremely knowledgeable about wild plants - and I learnt many new things. Joanna is very generous, and when we got back to the house we were given home made Dandelion cookies and herbal teas using the plants we had bet it foraging, as well as making pesto, tonic vinegar, and tasting delicious wild garlic butter. We were also given an epic handout with lots of information and recipes Very good value, and made new friends."

My aim is for my workshops to be friendly and inclusive places where all are welcome. If you have mobility or other issues which may impact being able to walk across different terrains for an hour please do get in touch to discuss options. Dogs are very welcome on leads on the walking part of the workshop (90 minutes).
