Come along for a Summer stroll and mushroom, plant, and tree forage at the wonderful Conham River Park in Bristol. Please note, it's very early in the mushroom season and it's been quite dry so fungi might be scarce! But we'll also look at other wild foods and have a lovely exploring walk along the way too :-)

Parking is limited, so please do share cars where possible.

Rich will be leading this walk and here are some of the highlights:

🔹 A walk through woodland and grassy meadow, discovering lots of interesting edible and medicinal things along the way, and how to identify them safely.

🔹 Riverside stroll and then up to a small woodland and open grassland area giving us a nice mix of habitat without going too far!

🔹 Learn about fungi, where to find them and how to identify them. We'll look at some trees and other plants too depending what's in season.

🔹 Beginner friendly, also good for intermediate level foragers.

🔹There's usually a coffee vendor at the carpark too.

Extra info:

🔹 Parking: We'll meet Conham River Car Park and walk from there.

🔹 Please dress for the weather, bring waterproofs and wear good walking boots/wellies if it looks like rain.

🔹 Bring any food and drink to keep you going, and we recommend a small rucksack to stow things in.
