Forage Box Avis 888

Brilliant experience with our Tutor Jim. inspiring and surprising how many things we could eat on the short walk. It left me wanting more.

We’ve just had the most amazing experience today with Alex. From walking around trying each plant to Alex’s knowledge to the range of food offered and tried in the last hour. I cannot recommend this enough for anyone with any interest in the world around us. Amazing day - thank you so much!

Our host/guide Alex was incredibly knowledgeable, took us through various wild plants, talked through differentiation, culinary uses/ideas. Gave us opportunities to taste, collect and engage with the foraging.

The meal was delightful, creative, surprising and delicious. Well done Alex!

Did a ‘forage & nibble’ workshop near Sheffield and loved it. Our guide Joel was super knowledgeable and friendly, the workshop was relaxed and he adapted to the needs of the group and able to answer questions and give recipe ideas. I wasn’t totally new to foraging but have learnt so much more and it’s a great way to connect with nature. Would definitely recommend it.

Our lead, Joel, was passionate, enthusiastic and full of knowledge. The session gave me so much confidence to add wild food to my cooking and a thirst to know more. A great way to connect back to the land and our environment.

Joel was an excellent guide. He was so knowledgeable on not only the plants that were edible to forage but also the history associated with eating wild foraged foods. I suffer severely with hayfever and will be looking into natural remedies for that and colds and anything else! I would definitely recommend the forage & nibble.

Our foraging expert, Joel, was so knowledgeable and enthusiastic about all things plant! It was impossible not to enjoy learning about the plants we found and tasted. It's really opened my eyes to what is available under our feet and above our heads in the trees. Highly recommend the workshops.

Hollie led an exceptional experience yesterday and I’m recommending it already to all my friends! My friend and I learned so much and even today I found myself looking differently at my garden. I even discovered a patch of sticky weed that is now soaking in some water overnight for a refreshing drink tomorrow!

Really had a great time with Alex and the rest of the group foraging amongst the hedgerows and meadows, amazing insights in what turned out to be a surprisingly small area covered in the 3 hour forage, topped off sampling various foraged treats Alex had prepared, yum!
Great value. Highly recommended.

A lovely morning with the very knowledgeable Jim spent walking slowly beside the Sainton Aqueduct. Learned a whole load about foraging and came home brimming with ideas

Emily was really knowledgeable and made the entire experience most entertaining and informative. Really interesting way to spend time in the countryside and I came way with a greater understanding of the culinary and medicinal uses of woodland trees, plants and flowers.

What an interesting workshop! I came with a little experience and knowledge of foraging, but this was a good experience to reaffirm some of it. Examples of where you'd use the plants as ingredients and their health benefits were given, helpful to see how you'd integrate them into your life. Joel, the tutor, was really informative and presented his expertise with quip humour, accommodating to all ages and skill levels.

I'd definitely recommend going for one of these sessions to learn about the plants in your local area or wider region.

What a great experience! Our guide,
Joel, just knew his stuff! And knew how to pass his knowledge on in an exciting and memorable way. It was good fun, easy going and an absolute pleasure to attend.
100% recommended to anyone who may be a little bit daunted by where to start.
A lovely location too. Our first visit and will definitely go again.
Top mark's all round

We had an incredible guide, Joel whist we went foraging on 25th April 2026 in Lincoln. Full of knowledge, polite throughout and entertaining. We learnt so much and did not appreciate what is available to us. Joel`s nettle cake was delicious as were the syrups. All for a very reasonable fee.

Very enjoyable! I leaned a lot.

We had Joel with us in Lincoln. Amazing experience for both me and my partner, we’re already planning on booking a foraging course again! Thank you for a fun, informative day!

I went with a friend on the forage and cook coastal full day event in Conwy which was hosted by Jim. The whole day was an informative, valuable and fun experience, walking round a certain area within a short distance of the coast, then coastal path for foliage, flowers, leaves etc to taste and then onto the beach at low tide for shellfish finding cockles and mussels. (We had access to a private toilet too!) The cooking of our fresh finds was brilliant as the whole group got stuck in making stir fries, shellfish cooked separately and sushi! Jim also provided extras; gluten free carbs for my friend who is coeliac and home made sauces and a soft or a small alcoholic drink to go with the food! Jim was an excellent guide, answered lots of questions, was highly knowledgable and it was so interesting, without making it pretentious, also adding the importance of environmental and sustainable impact on what to look out for etc. I have the confidence to forage on the coast again and would love to book a woodland one with the same company again soon! Thanks Jim for a brilliant, fun day! Highly recommended!

Went on the Chorlton Water Park foraging walk with my teenage daughter and a friend. Pete was brilliant, deeply knowledgeable about plants and fungi, generous with his stories, and open in a way that made it easy for all of us to engage. The Japanese knotweed segment was something we were both still talking about on the way home, which says everything. A genuinely good afternoon. Would recommend without hesitation, and already thinking about what else we might book.

Great day Foraging with Jim our Instructer.
Jim knew his stuff and I lear'nt lots.
Final food tasted top notch will be foraging again

Thoroughly enjoyed my forage and nibble session. It was informative but fun
