Foraging, Fire, and Food
|
If you are looking for something different to give as a present this Father's Day then we have a couple of options for you. Join us for a 'Father's Day Special' foraging lesson with accompany food around a fire. Children are free. Alternatively you can buy a gift voucher to use on any foraging walk on our calendar.
Set on the beautiful Helford River we will take a gentle stroll through the woods, across some meadows and down a slightly steep path to Grebe Beach. During the walk we will discover tasty hedgerow, woodland and coastal wild foods. Wild nibbles and a cooking demo included once we reach the beach.
Grebe Beach (known as Durgan beach to many locals) is south easterly facing with views across the Helford estuary to Ponsence Cove, and out to Falmouth Bay. It is over 200m long but there is little or no beach at high tide, sloping gently down to the water. A great sheltered beach with a mixture of sand, shingle and pebbles. Perfect for a dip, snorkelling, rock pooling and fishing. Dog friendly. |
My FatherI had the 'advantage' of growing up poor. Through necessity my father turned the garden over to veg, took me out foraging for mushrooms, and shooting with him for our meat. I went to school with holes in my trousers but with a pheasant and organic salad sandwich in my bag! My dad has helped shape who I am today by sharing his knowledge and experience with me.
