A event on Sunday 8th September. The event starts at 14:00.
This workshop is part an 8 month workshop series to learn about local wild food, medicine and crafts. We'll practice ethical foraging as an act of resistance. Check out the other workshops in the series: https://hdfst.uk/creative-foraging
Each session will include a guided foraging walk and an introduction to a range of craft and wild medicine making skills that you can build on throughout the year, leaving each session with knowledge to share with others.
In this September session, we'll hold how foraging often involves taking from nature and we want to share ways to give back. As the seasons swing and the plants start to produce their seeds, nuts and berries, we’ll be collecting what we find to make our own seed paper for dispersal around us. This feels like the perfect time to share about guerilla gardening, a way to create beauty in your neighbourhood by involving others in public planting.
2pm - foraging: how to find medicinal seeds, nuts and berries
4pm - learn which are best to use for different places and how to make your own seed paper
5pm - leave, spread this knowledge elsewhere
Meeting point: Conham River Park car park, BS15 3AW
Access: we'll walk along well trodden paths, the riverside paths can sometimes get muddy, get in touch if you have any access needs so we can adjust for you
Bursaries: for this series we have bursaries available, as well as discounts for booking onto 4. 6 and 8 workshops
Entry requirements: no age restrictions
