A Night time Exploration of Biofluorescence in Nature!
Come and join Lucy from Wild Roots Foraging for a spectacular evening exploring biofluorescence in nature! We will begin our evening with a wild-spiced, mushroom hot chocolate and a wander around Crow Wood to look at some of the wild edible and medicinal plants and fungi, as the light fades.
As darkness begins to fall over us, we will begin our UV hunt for biofluorescent fungi, plants, mosses, lichens and bugs with our UV torches.
Children under 14 go free (all children under 18 must be accompanied by an adult).
IMPORTANT INFORMATION
Due to the nature of the walk, we are only allowing 2 children per adult. Each child will be provided with a Hi-Vis vest but to be extra safe, we want to ensure all adults are able to monitor their children closely in order to reduce risk, as we will be walking in total darkness. Children need to stay close to their adults for this reason throughout the entire walk.
During our hunt, you will:
🍄 Learn how to forage safely and sustainably.
🍄 Learn how to identify wild edibles with confidence.
🍄 Get a taste of some fresh wild foods.
🍄 Learn how you can cook with what you forage.
🍄 Learn how you can process, store & preserve your finds.
🍄 Discover how you can make wild medicine, teas, infusions & tinctures.
🍄 Learn the folklore & history of the plants and mushrooms we find.
🍄 Learn the health benefits and cautions.
On top of this, all attendees will receive a FREE copy of the ‘Wild Roots Good Guide to Foraging’ ebook.
