Discover the surprising abundance of wild foods available through winter and early spring, and how they can contribute to health, wellbeing and resilience. In this engaging talk and demonstration, Leanne Townsend of Wild Food Stories will share seasonal foraging opportunities, including edible and medicinal mushrooms, plants and trees, alongside practical ways to preserve wild foods gathered throughout the year. From drying and fermenting to other traditional preservation methods, participants will learn how wild food can provide nourishment beyond the growing season. The session offers inspiration for connecting with nature, embracing seasonal living, and building greater food resilience through local wild resources.
