In this engaging talk, Lizzy will guide you through identifying these plants safely, ensuring you follow UK foraging laws, and sharing her favourite recipes to make the most of your finds. Whether it’s nettle soup, elderflower fritters, or wild garlic butter stuffed dough balls, Lizzy’s passion for combining quality food with the wonders of the natural world will leave you excited to be heading outside and seeing what delectable delights are available to you. Lizzy combines her deep knowledge of foraging and the natural world with her passion for delicious food, and sharing her knowledge to others.
