The workshop in detail
The guided mushroom foraging walk is the perfect opportunity to escape the city and spend a few hours in nature. Perfect for team building, an alternative stag or hen or just a day in the countryside!Ā
The walk begins with a meeting with Adi in a pub garden in Sussex. You will be sent the exact location details upon booking.
Adi will start the day with an informative talk about mushrooms and their benefits, setting the scene for an enriching outdoor adventure.
You will then head out into the countryside to learn about mushrooms and explore the natural world on a 2 hour walk. Adi will teach you how to identify a variety of edible mushrooms, focusing on their culinary uses. Throughout the walk, all baskets of collected mushrooms will be tested to ensure their safety before you take them home.
While mushroom sightings cannot be guaranteed, you will gain valuable knowledge about the do's and don'ts of foraging, identifying select edible mushrooms for novice foragers, avoiding poisonous mushrooms, understanding their habitats and learning the laws of foraging. Adi will also share tips on harvesting, cooking and preserving various wild mushrooms.
Join Adi for a day of exploring, learning and connecting with nature!
