Planet Southbank Foraging Walk

Local foraging walk with Carl Wain 

This time with a twist! After the walk we'll brew tea together, with leaves foraged on the walk. Bring a small bag to carry your tea leaves!

This is the next in a series of Foraging Walks in York which began in 2024.

Join us for an afternoon of foraging in our local area and discussing best sustainable practices. We will be walking over Millennium Bridge to forage in Millennium Fields on the Fulford side of the river.

The walk will be between one to one and a half hours.

Meet by 2pm at the seats by the Millennium Bridge on the Rowntree Park side of the river.

And if you'd like to join in the tea-brewing afterwards, bring a flask of water and/or a mug if you can. No problem if you can't manage to bring these - supplies will be available.

Places are limited to 25 people so that everyone has the opportunity to hear Carl and join in with the discussions. If there are no tickets left, see the dates later in the year (below).

Tickets are entirely free, though please choose a ticket with a donation to cover Planet South Bank if you can, to reflect the value of the walk to you. We invite you not to choose a free place unless of course a donation is beyond what you can afford.

Dogs welcome; no age restriction - children welcome. Please bear in mind that we will be walking off-path.

Carl says: "As the seasons change, so do the plants and those that are available to eat, so having the opportunity to walk through the seasons is a great way to get closer to nature."

Future dates in 2025 are Sunday 30 July and (tbc) and hopefuly a foraging walk as part of The Friends of Rowntree Park's autumn fair in September.

Each walk starts at 2pm. To receive details of the Eventbrite sign-up for these walks, please sign-up for updates at https://planetsouthbank.org.uk/subscribe-for-updates/
