Time & location each day โ 10am-2pm(ISH), meeting at The Workshop for Sustainability, NN26PQ. More information about what to expect is below.

Foraging Saturdays 2024
Rob takes us out, into and beyond the streets we walk every day, and into the pockets of nature that we possibly forget. These brilliant, seasonal workshops offer direct access to providing real hands on experiences, & knowledge with identifying edible plants found from everywhere in your garden, park, nature reserve.
You will experience the land differently. Let’s get outside together.

Fermenting Sundays 2023
The Foraging Saturdays are followed by our Fermenting Sundays, enabling you to produce truly healthy, flavour some additions for your meals, & preserving what you forage and what you grow. With fermentation you don’t have to rely on the jars you buy from the supermarket, you fill your own jars, with your own food which is good for the gut and full of heart. Each workshop will focus on ferments such as salt-based and lacto-based ferments such as krauts, kombucha, pickles, kimchi, miso and other delicious condiments. Aprons and equipment provided, we may ask you to bring a jar or the odd ingredient depending on what is being made.
