Saturday 30th May, 2-3.30pm

Which two weeds can you use to make really good coffee? What tree makes the best washing up liquid? Birmingham’s own wild food facilitators Forij answer these and many more fascinating questions, as they lead another of their much-loved foraging walks for all ages. This is our first foraging walk at this time of year, giving you the chance to discover lots of new Spring delights. This event is Pay What You Feel (suggested donation £5), but is often sold out – so you do need to book your place online at: https://www.ticketsource.com/moseley-park-and-pool-trust/t-zopojlo

This activity takes place outdoors: so please dress for the weather, wear sturdy shoes and bring water. Please note sessions will be cancelled if there are high winds, extreme heat or thunderstorms directly overhead.

All children must be accompanied by a responsible adult – this is not a drop-off event.
