Wild picking, learning more about first aid in nature AND cooking together! Are you curious about what the plants around you, right here in the city, can actually do? What plants, leaves and seeds you can eat? What you can do for a headache or minor wound when you are in the woods? What you can brush your teeth with when you don’t have that with you for a while? Then join the expedition and discover what nature has in store for you.
During this expedition you will see how many useful plants you will encounter, learn how to recognize them, which ones are edible and what are suitable first aid plants. Of course we will harvest some plants and take them with us. Back at the Ceuvel, some of the gathered harvest will be washed, cut and sorted. We will do culinary work with that, depending on what the park has to offer us at the time. To conclude, there will be a tasty tasting.
Please note that because we also pay attention to first aid with plants while picking, cooking in this session is easier than other expeditions.
