​"Awe inspiring! I don't know of anyone else who can hold my attention for so long... What a superb evening. Thank you Jonathon Huet."


​ABOUT THE COURSE

   This course:

  • Supports people's wellbeing
  • Connects people with nature​​​
A series of seasonal events, each one a special experience of wild food foraging, Celtic fire and folklore.  Bushcraft and Celtic folklore specialist, Jonathon Huet, will take you on a guided walk to forage for wild food and impart his knowledge on different native trees in each season.

The walk will end with a primitive fire-lighting demonstration and you will experience a Celtic Fire Ceremony around the glowing embers of the fire and learn the folklore of native trees.

​Each event is designed to help you connect with nature, switch off from modern life demands and deepen your understanding of native plant folklore. 

THE COURSE WILL COVER

  • ​Knowledge of native trees
  • Wild food foraging
  • Traditional fire lighting demonstration
  • Celtic Fire Ceremony 

THIS COURSE IS SUITABLE FOR

Adults looking to deepen their connection, awareness and knowledge within nature, to be introduced to plant lore and enjoy a greater understanding of edible wild plants.

WHAT TO BRING/WEAR

  • Suitable outdoor clothing and walking shoes for a woodland evening walk. We recommend bringing some spare warm layers.
  • Your own drinks and snacks if you wish.
