Wild Harvest
Join them for a very special, immersive day in the Wasing woodlands, guided by chef Joe Cathers.
The morning begins with a warm welcome around the fire, with cacao and a light snack, before setting out into the ancient woodland for a guided foraging walk.
Over two hours, Joe will share his knowledge of wild, seasonal plants and how they inform his approach to cooking, encouraging a deeper connection to the land and its natural rhythms.
Returning from the woods, guests will gather for a relaxed, seasonal lunch inspired by the day’s foraging and cooked over fire.
Dessert is served around the fire, with time to sit, reflect and enjoy the surroundings before the day draws to a close.
Places are limited for this intimate gathering in the Wasing woodlands.
They hope you can join them for this unique experience in the heart of Wasing’s woodlands.
The group will be kept small to allow space for connection and conversation.
