I'll start with giving a big-up to a recent Wild Foods Foraging course that I went on in South Devon.
Courtesy of Robin Harford at EatWeeds.co.uk we took a 2 hr walk through the South East Devon countryside and were introduced to over 25 plants that on any other day we would have walked past. Having sampled each one and been told how to prepare / use each one for different functions, I now have a brand new, free, larder to choose from. While green, environmentally friendly and everything tree-hugging, it is also a fantastic way to genuinely supplement your diet in these financially austere times. For the cost of a lunch in Exeter I am now able to forage and add to the self-sustainability that we should all be looking towards.
