Join herbalist Rachel Bescoby on a guided walk around Fen Meadow exploring the fascinating folklore, history, medicinal and other uses of some of the many herbs growing locally. Many of these plants are often overlooked but still have a lot to offer us as plants that can be foraged for food and some that are used in sustainable herbal medicine. Handouts with useful information will be provided.

This walk is aimed at adults but interested children are welcome. Well behaved dogs on leads are also welcome.
