Upcoming Foraging Walks
There are no scheduled walks at present. Foraging follows the season and sometimes the weather has ideas of its own. After an unusually hot dry spell, I'm allowing the local landscape time to recover rather than offering a walk where there is little of value to discover. New dates will be added here when conditions are right. Would you like to hear when the next walks are announced? Use the contact form under Contact and select Foraging Walks or join the Living Apothecary mailing list for new dates, seasonal gatherings and workshops.
