Wildfood School
Ever eaten nettles? Or even some of the edible thistles? And
how
about telling your friends that you've eaten chickweed, and know all
about finding food from the wild?
If that's the sort of
thing that tickles your fancy, then Wild Food School is probably the
sort of place that will capture your imagination.
Wild Food
School, based in Lostwithiel, opened at the end of April 2005, and
offers weekend and day courses where students can gain hands-on
experience in identifying and using many of Britain's edible wild
plants, and do so in an informal learning environment. There also also
regular guided walks on the subject. There is also a Distance Learning
programme available if you are unable to visit Lostwithiel
The Wildfood School has been featured in BBC TV's Countryfile
programme. More Details
