A chance to experience the Wild Harvest wild food walk on a more intimate level. This two hour forage was formed on a "teach Foraging" weekend course utilising a wonderful and engaging session plan I was able to add some structured education under the guidance of members of The Association of Foragers. We meet 20 species spanning across the plant kingdom at Flora, Fauna, Fungi & Foliage - Locations are flexible, I cover Greater Manchester and Cheshire & have my own land for an urban forage.
A three hour walk to shake off the cobwebs and emerge themselves in some nature - this package accommodates up to 20 people. It includes a range of plants, flowers and mushroom identification tips and trips and a lot of information on safe and sustainable foraging.
I am heavily insured to lead public forages and all walks have appropriate permissions acquired. Foraged drinks and snacks included.
I offer discounts to community groups and volunteer organisations.
Join me for a two hour adventure, indulging in foraged snacks and drinks. Perfect for a group of 20 people, this exclusive experience can be yours to host and profit from. Simply hire me for a set fee and sell the tickets to your customer base.

I took all the tools I have in my mental health armoury and created this 'retreat' for Arc Centre Stockport as part of their Arts and Health week. The aim is to use the nature around us to turn down the noise in our lives. Combining art, mindfulness and nature has allowed me to bring an empowering experience that helps you to find you again in these overly hectic times. You don't need to be an out doors adventurer, an artist or a calm creative type to come along... but you might leave as one.
Average around half an acre a day, if you have a large amount of land to cover I can arrange for a scythe gang to come out but please note individual scythers rates vary.
Includes planting tasks, I only use hand tools and lay in accordance with the requirements set out by direct gov to enable land owners to draw hedgerow payments whilst being environmental legends providing habitat and food for wildlife.
Train your fruit trees into beautiful and unique forms that work for you, due to the time it takes to train a tree I ask you consider this as a minimum 5 year investment into your tree, but, these sessions have been successfully used as training days for volunteers of community orchards so they have the basic formative pruning skills to use themselves across the seasons.
Prices are per day not per trained form and inclusive of insurance and tool hire.
We can people and community groups get growing with;
Gardening & general maintenance
Orchard design & planting
Formative pruning & volunteer training.
