“Learning to use local plants to support our health is the real medicine.”
🌿 Plant Medicine Foraging Walks – Discover the true healing magic of nature on a guided foraging walk through the local Sussex countryside.
🌿 Plant Medicine Retreats – Join myself and Hannah (Heartcentredliving) at Let’s Retreat yurts in Angmering, West Sussex to connect with the medicinal plants of the season.
What to expect from a Plant Medicine Foraging Walk
🌿 A chance to slow down, step out of the bustle of daily life and to be present. Together, we will explore the abundance of edible and medicinal plants growing nearby. We will learn how to safely identify, harvest and use the plants to support our health.
🍃 Held at various locations all within a 15-20 minute drive of Worthing, West Sussex. (Depending on the season and the influence of the weather, the most abundant location will be chosen in the few days prior to our walk.)
🍃 All walks will be gentle as we will be stopping regularly but they will be on uneven countryside terrain. (There is no need to be an experienced hiker but you must be fit enough to complete the walk.)
🍃 Walks will happen in all weathers so I will email out details of the expected conditions for our walk a few days before. Walks will only be cancelled in the event of dangerous weather conditions.
What to bring
🧺 Bring a basket or natural bags to store anything we forage.
📝 An old fashioned note pad and pen is always useful but notes and photos can also be taken on your phone. (Phones will be on silent to ensure that we can fully immerse ourselves in nature.)
💧 Please bring water and any additional snacks you may need with you.
Cost/Exchange:
- £40 for approximately 2 and a half hours guided circular walk.
- You will receive Plant fact sheets for the key medicinal plant/s of the season.
- Enjoy a medicinal herbal tea & tasty snack made using foraged foods. (Please do let me know of any allergies when booking.)
