Foraging in Wivenhoe Park
Join Lora Aziz – wildcrafter, artist and author – for an introduction to foraging around Wivenhoe Park, followed by tea and arts activities back at Art Exchange.
Lora will lead us on a foraging expedition around Wivenhoe Park. We will identify local plants, learning which ones are edible, medicinal, and used in a variety of traditional ways. Together, we will explore the natural wonders of Wivenhoe Park.
So we can forage responsibly, we’ll be collectively picking only a small amount, and we’ll be providing materials for you to create leaf rubbings or anything else you’d like to observe!
We will then head back to Art Exchange for a cuppa with some mint we’ve recently foraged! For those who feel inspired, there will be arts activities available.
A FREE, foraging introduction for all the family! Everyone welcome. No need to book!
Do consider wearing sensible shoes as the parkland can be muddy in places if its been raining.
