finding - gathering - harvesting - feasting

In 2026 we are delighted to be continuing our collaboration with Lucy, The Wild Cooke with seasonal dates to make the most of every foraging opportunity available throughout the year. While it is true that Spring and Autumn may offer the most variety for foraging, there are always amazing opportunities to benefit from nature’s larder throughout the whole year.

Join Lucy as she takes a leisurely stroll while exploring nature’s bounty. There are welcome refreshers and delicious morsels prepared by Lucy from her previous foraging trips as you meander along the coastline and hedgerows. Couple this with expert foraging tuition and a sumptuous buffet lunch featuring a combination of foraged ingredients sitting alongside the best of local produce from our wonderful suppliers, this will truly be an experience to remember.
