'Hey folks - join us today as we take you on an Autumnal foraging walk here in the UK, find a new use for Nasturtiums, and also harvest our veggies before the frost hits - we even share some recipes!   IMPORTANT - Please ensure you are 100% certain of a plant and how to use it before you pick it. Some plants are poisonous if not prepared correctly, or may interfere with medications and health conditions.  There are links below to reputable websites who offer clear guides to help you identify plants, please do take a look.  This is just how we forage, it is by no means an in depth guide, we simply show you what we use.  Thanks for watching, please do share what you love to forage below.
