Food Foraging Masterclass

Published: 28/09/2015

Flintshire residents will have the chance to forage for their dinner at a Wild Woodland Foods Masterclass at Wepre Park, next month. Flintshire County Council’s Arts, Culture and Events Team has organised the masterclass led by experienced food forager Matt Normansell on Saturday 17 October between 10.30am-4pm. Matt will lead the group on an adventure identifying some of the edible plants that grow in abundance all around and which are sought out by the country’s top chefs. He says that people attend for various reasons. Some are survivalists, some want natural nutritious food, some want free food, and some are just curious. The event costs £30 and booking is required. For further information or to book a place please contact Beth Ditson, Flintshire’s Community Events Officer on 07786 523601 or email beth.ditson@flintshire.gov.uk.
