What to expect:
A foraging tour of the Lockleaze Community Orchard, learning to identify edible and medicinal plants growing there. After collecting some samples of the edible plants available in July, we will come together over a fire, and share tasters and stories as the evening draws in.

What to bring:
Please wear sturdy footwear and appropriate clothing for being outside for the duration of the event. There is a main landscaped gravel path through the orchard, however, some of the foraging may stray into the more wild areas. Please contact us with any access requirements or dietary/ allergy information so that we can accommodate you (e-mail: [email protected]).

The event is being organised as part of HomeMade, Bonnington Walk's arts project, with artists Charli Clark and Sylvia Rimat.

Tickets are subsidised and limited, so please book in advance to avoid disappointment.
HomeMade is funded by Ginkgo Projects and Legal and General. Supported by Lockleaze Neighbourhood Trust.
