Autumn Coast: Mushrooms, Seaweed, Seabuckthorn

About this event

Forage for seaweeds, mushrooms and plants like Seabuckthorn. Learn how to harvest and use the delicious, healthy berries and sea veg. Around the autumn equinox our shores are brimming with wild edibles; it's a time of bountiful harvests and a perfect time to connect with nature through foraging. Seabuckthorn, a nutrient and flavour-rich superfood, takes center stage in culinary explorations during this period. Alongside it, a diverse array of mushrooms and seaweeds offers a bounty of flavors and textures. Emphasizing responsible foraging practices, wild food safety -with a focus on identification features as well as comparing similar looking toxic and inedible species-,sustainability and harvesting and preparation suggestions, our walk through the vibrant landscape will result not only in a basket full of wild goodies but also in a deeper connection with the natural world. Culminating in a wild food picnic, or, weather permitting, a beachside fire, the experience of savoring foraged delicacies is a celebration of the season, the joy of discovery, and the local ecosystem.
