 Nantwich goes Wild

The Festival is going BIG this year on wild and foraged food courtesy of celebrity forager Dave Watson. New for 2007 Dave will be running introduction to foraging courses for festival goers to join. As well as pointing out trees and plants that will bear fruit and nuts in the autumn, Dave will complete the wild food culinary experience by explaining how to create different cooking temperatures with a camp fire and using it as an oven.

Read more about Dave's plans for foraging in Nantwich.


Wild Food Workshops
