Come along to a family-friendly foraging walk at Highbury Community Orchard and discover some of the wild and cultivated plants growing there. Learn about their place in the ecosystem and how they can support our health and wellbeing, while tasting some of them and taking home plenty of ideas for how to identify, prepare and use them.

This relaxed outdoor session is suitable for beginners and provides a great opportunity for families, individuals and nature enthusiasts to connect with the natural environment, learn new skills and enjoy time outdoors together.
