Invasivore Walk 10:00am
Join me for a walk along the Almond river to identify, collect, and sample some delicious wild edibles. We will focus on invasive, non-native species on this walk and pick them in the pleasant knowledge that doing so won't harm and even might benefit the eco system as well as provide us with some amazing flavours.
As a reward for supporting the environment there is a £5 discount available for anyone coming to the course on foot or by bus or bicycle. (discount code BUSORBIKE)
