Foraging Nature Walk

Discover local plants, mushrooms, and natural ingredients, and learn how to prepare them into a delicious snack or drink — depending on the season and forest offerings.
The group will gather natural ingredients from the forest and, together, we will prepare a delicious snack and/or drink at the end of the trip. The options and opportunities vary with the season and what nature provides, making every outing a truly unique experience.
You'll also learn about your "everyman's right" and practical tips to thrive and feel comforted in nature.
