What is it?

Head to Colby Woodland Garden in Pembrokeshire for some Wild Food Foraging on 23rd April 2014.

Join the Head Gardener to forage for wild food in the meadow and woods.  Learn how easy it is to cook on a campfire.  A perfect way for foodies to learn about the edible food that is available in our countryside and how to turn it into a feast.

The National Trust’s Woodland Garden is set in a tranquil secret valley.  In the spring and summer it is awash flowers including bluebells, crocuses, daffodils, camellias, rhododendrons, azaleas, hydrangeas and summer wildflowers.  There is also an abundance of dragonflies and butterflies which enjoy the surroundings.
