Preparing for your Walk
What to expect on a foraging walk
When you attend a Wild Roots Foraging walk, you are immersing yourself into deepening your connection with nature. This is not just a foraging walk, this is deep education, history, and practice in re-learning how to be whole humans, as our ancestors once were.
After learning how to forage safely and sustainably and within the parameters of the law, we will set off and begin connecting with each plant and fungi (or seaweed) with wonderful talks on the history of each, the folklore, medicinal benefits, cautions, preparation techniques, and instructions for all the different recipes you can try with each, tasting as we go.
Lucy will also bring along some homemade wild food tasters for you to try, so you can get a real understanding of ways you can explore and experiment with the wild foods you will meet.
What to bring
You don’t need a lot. In fact, you can choose to turn up with nothing but yourself and still have a completely enjoyable experience. However, you may want to bring along some of the items I have listed below, to get the most out of your day.
Foraging basket
Camera/phone camera
Notebook
Drink
Sunhat or rainhat
Waterproofs if raining (we don’t cancel an event for rain)
Always good walking boots or wellies, even if sunny and dry, as terrain can be rough.
