Event Details
Get ready for an adventure with a Totally Wild UK professional forager! Join us on a journey to learn about the hidden world of wild edibles that surrounds us. And that’s not all! Enjoy a delicious wild food meal that will inspire you to pick up your foraging basket for your next adventure.
WHAT TO EXPECT
The foraging experience will last approximately 5-6 hours, giving you ample time to learn about foraging, explore the area, and enjoy a wild food meal!
You will be guided by a professional forager who will teach you about the rules and ethics of foraging. You’ll receive tips on how to confidently identify different plants, including their edible, medicinal, and herbal uses.
The foraging experience will involve a slow-paced walk with frequent stops to discuss and identify various plants, fruits, fungi, seaweeds, and tubers. The species you encounter may vary depending on the location, whether it’s an inland or coastal walk, and the season, but they’ll always be epic.
During the day, you’ll have the opportunity to sample an assortment of pre-made wild food items, including syrups, flavored salts, and alcohol infusions. These wild treats will give you a sneak peek into the incredible flavors that nature has to offer.
Following the foraging expedition, you can opt to participate in a communal cooking session, creating dishes that are inspired by the season and that celebrate the bounty of nature.Â
Past meals have included dishes like:
** Wild Garlic and Dehydrated Mushroom Fresh RollsÂ
** Elderflower Eton Mess
** Dandelion and Dulse Rice Noodle Salad
** Dandelion Root Crumb, Meadowsweet Cream & Birch Sap Syrup
After the event, you will receive an email detailing everything you foraged during the day, including harvesting tips, edibility and the best ways to get these tantilising ingredients into your everyday diets. The email will also include recipes from the lunch you enjoyed, so you can recreate the magic at home!Â
WHAT TO BRING
- Suitable clothing for the predicted weather, such as long trousers to protect against nettles and brambles.
- Sturdy footwear, preferably closed-toed shoes for off-path exploration.
- A drink, as some wild flavors may be strong, and it’s advisable to have water for the day.

Event Details
Whether you’re a beginner or someone who wants to deepen their knowledge, our three-hour foraging walks are the perfect way to learn all about wild food.
WHAT TO EXPECT
To begin, we will go through the basics of foraging, how Totally Wild got started and some of the best practices we’ve found along the way.
We will then head out on our walk to discover what exciting wild foods are growing nearby from flowers to fruits, fungi, seaweeds & tubers – there’s plenty to find. We run our courses throughout the year so you can experience the changing habitats and plants through the different seasons.
During the foraging event, your professional forager will introduce you to a vast number of edible species; giving you tips on harvesting, correct identification and possible look-alikes as well as a huge range of cooking ideas.
You will have an opportunity to taste a range of pre-made wild food tasters from syrups, flavoured salts and alcohol infusions.
FOLLOWING THE EVENT
You’ll be sent an email detailing everything you found on the day, along with some tips on harvesting and how to use wild food in everyday life.
WHAT TO BRING
Ultimately bring along anything you feel necessary for a day outdoors. We will be outside for the majority of the course during rain or shine. We do advise the following items:
Suitable clothing for the predicted weather (an umbrella if it’s predicted rain)
Sturdy footwear. Walking boots are highly recommended.
A drink – some wild flavours may be strong and water is always advised for a days foraging
Snacks should you feel the need for them during the foraging walk.
A pad or paper should you wish to take notes
EXTRA BITS
Finalised course details are sent out on the Monday before the event to the email address used during the booking process. This email will include the specific meeting location for the course and an introduction to your forager for the day. If you have not received this email by the end of the Monday before the event please contact us. On the odd occasion our emails can end up in junk folders so please check there first.
We can never guarantee what will be found on our courses. One of the joys of foraging is eating truly seasonal ingredients and never quite knowing what to expect! What we’ll see and eat will vary from season to season and venue to venue.
Our foraging events are run outdoors, and they take place in rain or shine. Please bring appropriate clothing and shoes for the predicted weather conditions.
Children are welcome on our courses, and children under the age of 12 may attend for free, with one child attending per ticketed adult. Please make sure to add a note to your order where prompted at checkout to let us know if you are bringing a child. There are a limited number of venues which do not allow children under 12 to attend- please double check the venue information for your event to confirm.

Buckland Park Lake
Park Drive, Betchworth RH3 7FEA part of Buckland Estate, Buckland Park Lake was formerly a sand quarry, quarried until 1990. It is unsurprising, then, that this is an ecosystem formed on a basis of sandy, acidic soils, with sandy beaches and a sandstone cliff. At this location we generally take a walk around the lake itself, learning about the plants that thrive on the pathside, near the water, and in the woodland beyond. Toilets onsite Free guest parking Children welcome (please note that one child under 12 is welcome to attend per ticketed adult, but we do not cater separately for children on our Forage and Cook events, so you be sharing your lunch!) Dogs are not allowed CafeBuckland Park Lake

Get ready for an adventure with a Totally Wild UK professional forager! Join us on a journey to learn about the hidden world of wild edibles that surrounds us. And that’s not all! Enjoy a delicious wild food meal that will inspire you to pick up your foraging basket for your next adventure.
WHAT TO EXPECT
The foraging experience will last approximately 5-6 hours, giving you ample time to learn about foraging, explore the area, and enjoy a wild food meal!
You will be guided by a professional forager who will teach you about the rules and ethics of foraging. You’ll receive tips on how to confidently identify different plants, including their edible, medicinal, and herbal uses.
The foraging experience will involve a slow-paced walk with frequent stops to discuss and identify various plants, fruits, fungi, seaweeds, and tubers. The species you encounter may vary depending on the location, whether it’s an inland or coastal walk, and the season, but they’ll always be epic.
During the day, you’ll have the opportunity to sample an assortment of pre-made wild food items, including syrups, flavored salts, and alcohol infusions. These wild treats will give you a sneak peek into the incredible flavors that nature has to offer.
Following the foraging expedition, you can opt to participate in a communal cooking session, creating dishes that are inspired by the season and that celebrate the bounty of nature.Â
Past meals have included dishes like:
** Wild Garlic and Dehydrated Mushroom Fresh RollsÂ
** Elderflower Eton Mess
** Dandelion and Dulse Rice Noodle Salad
** Dandelion Root Crumb, Meadowsweet Cream & Birch Sap Syrup
After the event, you will receive an email detailing everything you foraged during the day, including harvesting tips, edibility and the best ways to get these tantilising ingredients into your everyday diets. The email will also include recipes from the lunch you enjoyed, so you can recreate the magic at home!Â
WHAT TO BRING
- Suitable clothing for the predicted weather, such as long trousers to protect against nettles and brambles.
- Sturdy footwear, preferably closed-toed shoes for off-path exploration.
- A drink, as some wild flavors may be strong, and it’s advisable to have water for the day.

Buckland Park Lake
Park Drive, Betchworth RH3 7FEA part of Buckland Estate, Buckland Park Lake was formerly a sand quarry, quarried until 1990. It is unsurprising, then, that this is an ecosystem formed on a basis of sandy, acidic soils, with sandy beaches and a sandstone cliff. At this location we generally take a walk around the lake itself, learning about the plants that thrive on the pathside, near the water, and in the woodland beyond. Toilets onsite Free guest parking Children welcome (please note that one child under 12 is welcome to attend per ticketed adult, but we do not cater separately for children on our Forage and Cook events, so you be sharing your lunch!) Dogs are not allowed CafeBuckland Park Lake

Event Details
Whether you’re a beginner or someone who wants to deepen your knowledge, our three-hour foraging walks are the perfect way to learn all about wild food.
WHAT TO EXPECT
To begin, we will go through the basics of foraging, how Totally Wild got started and some of the best practices we’ve found along the way.
We will then head out on our walk to discover what exciting wild foods are growing nearby from flowers to fruits, fungi, seaweeds & tubers – there’s plenty to find. We run our courses throughout the year so you can experience the changing habitats and plants through the different seasons.Â
During the foraging event, your professional forager will introduce you to a vast number of edible species; giving you tips on harvesting, correct identification and possible look-alikes as well as a huge range of cooking ideas.
You will have an opportunity to taste a range of pre-made wild food tasters from syrups, flavoured salts and alcohol infusions.
FOLLOWING THE EVENT
You’ll be sent an email detailing everything you found on the day, along with some tips on harvesting and how to use wild food in everyday life.Â
WHAT TO BRING
Ultimately bring along anything you feel necessary for a day outdoors. We will be outside for the majority of the course during rain or shine. We do advise the following items:
- Suitable clothing for the predicted weather (an umbrella if it’s predicted rain)
- Sturdy footwear. Walking boots are highly recommended.Â
- A drink – some wild flavours may be strong and water is always advised for a days foraging
- Snacks should you feel the need for them during the foraging walk.Â
- A pad or paper should you wish to take notes
EXTRA BITS
Finalised course details are sent out on the Monday before the event to the email address used during the booking process. This email will include the specific meeting location for the course and an introduction to your forager for the day. If you have not received this email by the end of the Monday before the event please contact us. On the odd occasion our emails can end up in junk folders so please check there first.Â
We can never guarantee what will be found on our courses. One of the joys of foraging is eating truly seasonal ingredients and never quite knowing what to expect! What we’ll see and eat will vary from season to season and venue to venue.
Our foraging events are run outdoors, and they take place in rain or shine. Please bring appropriate clothing and shoes for the predicted weather conditions.Â
Children are welcome on our courses, and children under the age of 12 may attend for free, with one child attending per ticketed adult. Please make sure to add a note to your order where prompted at checkout to let us know if you are bringing a child. There are a limited number of venues which do not allow children under 12 to attend- please double check the venue information for your event to confirm.Â

Buckland Park Lake
Park Drive, Betchworth RH3 7FEA part of Buckland Estate, Buckland Park Lake was formerly a sand quarry, quarried until 1990. It is unsurprising, then, that this is an ecosystem formed on a basis of sandy, acidic soils, with sandy beaches and a sandstone cliff. At this location we generally take a walk around the lake itself, learning about the plants that thrive on the pathside, near the water, and in the woodland beyond. Toilets onsite Free guest parking Children welcome (please note that one child under 12 is welcome to attend per ticketed adult, but we do not cater separately for children on our Forage and Cook events, so you be sharing your lunch!) Dogs are not allowed CafeBuckland Park Lake

Get ready for an adventure with a Totally Wild UK professional forager! Join us on a journey to learn about the hidden world of wild edibles that surrounds us. And that’s not all! Enjoy a delicious wild food meal that will inspire you to pick up your foraging basket for your next adventure.
WHAT TO EXPECT
The foraging experience will last approximately 5-6 hours, giving you ample time to learn about foraging, explore the area, and enjoy a wild food meal!
You will be guided by a professional forager who will teach you about the rules and ethics of foraging. You’ll receive tips on how to confidently identify different plants, including their edible, medicinal, and herbal uses.
The foraging experience will involve a slow-paced walk with frequent stops to discuss and identify various plants, fruits, fungi, seaweeds, and tubers. The species you encounter may vary depending on the location, whether it’s an inland or coastal walk, and the season, but they’ll always be epic.
During the day, you’ll have the opportunity to sample an assortment of pre-made wild food items, including syrups, flavored salts, and alcohol infusions. These wild treats will give you a sneak peek into the incredible flavors that nature has to offer.
Following the foraging expedition, you can opt to participate in a communal cooking session, creating dishes that are inspired by the season and that celebrate the bounty of nature.Â
Past meals have included dishes like:
** Wild Garlic and Dehydrated Mushroom Fresh RollsÂ

WHAT TO BRING
- Suitable clothing for the predicted weather, such as long trousers to protect against nettles and brambles.
- Sturdy footwear, preferably closed-toed shoes for off-path exploration.

Park Drive, Betchworth RH3 7FEA part of Buckland Estate, Buckland Park Lake was formerly a sand quarry, quarried until 1990. It is unsurprising, then, that this is an ecosystem formed on a basis of sandy, acidic soils, with sandy beaches and a sandstone cliff.

It is unsurprising, then, that this is an ecosystem formed on a basis of sandy, acidic soils, with sandy beaches and a sandstone cliff. At this location we generally take a walk around the lake itself, learning about the plants that thrive on the pathside, near the water, and in the woodland beyond. Toilets onsite Free guest parking Children welcome (please note that one child under 12 is welcome to attend per ticketed adult, but we do not cater separately for children on our Forage and Cook events, so you be sharing your lunch!) Dogs are not allowed CafeBuckland Park Lake

Event Details
Get ready for an adventure with a Totally Wild UK professional forager! Join us on a journey to learn about the hidden world of wild edibles that surrounds us. And that’s not all! Enjoy a delicious wild food meal that will inspire you to pick up your foraging basket for your next adventure.
WHAT TO EXPECT
The foraging experience will last approximately 5-6 hours, giving you ample time to learn about foraging, explore the area, and enjoy a wild food meal!
You will be guided by a professional forager who will teach you about the rules and ethics of foraging. You’ll receive tips on how to confidently identify different plants, including their edible, medicinal, and herbal uses.
The foraging experience will involve a slow-paced walk with frequent stops to discuss and identify various plants, fruits, fungi, seaweeds, and tubers. The species you encounter may vary depending on the location, whether it’s an inland or coastal walk, and the season, but they’ll always be epic.
During the day, you’ll have the opportunity to sample an assortment of pre-made wild food items, including syrups, flavored salts, and alcohol infusions. These wild treats will give you a sneak peek into the incredible flavors that nature has to offer.
Following the foraging expedition, you can opt to participate in a communal cooking session, creating dishes that are inspired by the season and that celebrate the bounty of nature.Â
Past meals have included dishes like:
** Wild Garlic and Dehydrated Mushroom Fresh RollsÂ
** Elderflower Eton Mess
** Dandelion and Dulse Rice Noodle Salad
** Dandelion Root Crumb, Meadowsweet Cream & Birch Sap Syrup
After the event, you will receive an email detailing everything you foraged during the day, including harvesting tips, edibility and the best ways to get these tantilising ingredients into your everyday diets. The email will also include recipes from the lunch you enjoyed, so you can recreate the magic at home!Â
WHAT TO BRING
- Suitable clothing for the predicted weather, such as long trousers to protect against nettles and brambles.
- Sturdy footwear, preferably closed-toed shoes for off-path exploration.
- A drink, as some wild flavors may be strong, and it’s advisable to have water for the day.
- Snacks for the foraging walk, as lunch will be served around 2/3pm.
- A pad or paper if you wish to take notes.
- A blanket or chair for the communal meal, as seating options may vary depending on the venue.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

Event Details
Whether you’re a beginner or someone who wants to deepen their knowledge, our three-hour foraging walks are the perfect way to learn all about wild food.
WHAT TO EXPECT
To begin, we will go through the basics of foraging, how Totally Wild got started and some of the best practices we’ve found along the way.
We will then head out on our walk to discover what exciting wild foods are growing nearby from flowers to fruits, fungi, seaweeds & tubers – there’s plenty to find. We run our courses throughout the year so you can experience the changing habitats and plants through the different seasons.
During the foraging event, your professional forager will introduce you to a vast number of edible species; giving you tips on harvesting, correct identification and possible look-alikes as well as a huge range of cooking ideas.
You will have an opportunity to taste a range of pre-made wild food tasters from syrups, flavoured salts and alcohol infusions.
FOLLOWING THE EVENT
You’ll be sent an email detailing everything you found on the day, along with some tips on harvesting and how to use wild food in everyday life.
WHAT TO BRING
Ultimately bring along anything you feel necessary for a day outdoors. We will be outside for the majority of the course during rain or shine. We do advise the following items:
Suitable clothing for the predicted weather (an umbrella if it’s predicted rain)
Sturdy footwear. Walking boots are highly recommended.
A drink – some wild flavours may be strong and water is always advised for a days foraging
Snacks should you feel the need for them during the foraging walk.
A pad or paper should you wish to take notes
EXTRA BITS
Finalised course details are sent out on the Monday before the event to the email address used during the booking process. This email will include the specific meeting location for the course and an introduction to your forager for the day. If you have not received this email by the end of the Monday before the event please contact us. On the odd occasion our emails can end up in junk folders so please check there first.
We can never guarantee what will be found on our courses. One of the joys of foraging is eating truly seasonal ingredients and never quite knowing what to expect! What we’ll see and eat will vary from season to season and venue to venue.
Our foraging events are run outdoors, and they take place in rain or shine. Please bring appropriate clothing and shoes for the predicted weather conditions.
Children are welcome on our courses, and children under the age of 12 may attend for free, with one child attending per ticketed adult. Please make sure to add a note to your order where prompted at checkout to let us know if you are bringing a child. There are a limited number of venues which do not allow children under 12 to attend- please double check the venue information for your event to confirm.
