As last week, we will aim to meet just before 11am, ready for a short introduction and be ready to kick off our collecting at 11am. The event is expected to last several hours depending on weather conditions and how much fruit people want to collect.
As usual, we plan to bring a close to the event by toasting each others good health & sharing foraging tales in a local public house (yet to be decided).
Sturdy footwear is a must. Gloves are optional, but recommended.--- we will be going as the storm is not predicted to start until the evening!!
Please wear appropriate outdoor clothing for all events and as always... Bring your OWN BAGS!!
