THE GRANGE HAMPSHIRE
Fungi Focused Flavour-Led Walks

LINK IN BIO / www.flavourfred.com/walks

Join me at The Grange Hampshire. A new site consisting of mixed land including woodlands, streams and many bountiful hedgerows. It also is a vineyard.

Flavour-Led Foraging walks are an introduction to foraging for flavour in order to teach on the rules and regulations, identification techniques, and the risks associated with wild food and drink. Throughout the walk we will identify seasonal ingredients and compare and contrast with their dangerous counterparts. During this I will be regularly visiting certain techniques of preservation and ways in which to create tasty wild ingredients to use at home along with a few tasters along the way.

For each type of fungi and also plants I will discuss techniques of preservation and ways in which to create tasty wild ingredients that can be used at home. I will follow up with detailed information surrounding what we have seen throughout the walk, links, literature and remain available to answer questions.

A further confirmation email will be sent 3 days prior to the Walk where any special requests and dietary requirements can be discussed.

🌳🌲WALKS IN SUPPORT OF THE WOODLAND TRUST🌱🌸
📍 Brede High Woods (near Rye), East Sussex
📅 11th October - 9th November
(Ticketed Event)

Join me for a beautiful 2.5 hour walk through the beautiful, ancient & protected Brede High Wood, East Sussex.  This guided 2.5 hour walk to learn about plant & fungi identification, history, folklore, responsibility, soil heath & much more.
This location & session is authorised by the Woodland Trust in order to demonstrate the importance of the site and to teach respectfulness and responsibility to the diverse & complex relationships happening in nature all around us.

Brede means ‘broad’ in Old English and probably describes the lower reaches of the river valley while ‘High’ refers to a ‘hay’ or grassy enclosure, probably a pasture.

Once part of the Weald’s iron smelting industry, Brede High Woods’ historical influence is present throughout the site today.  There are saucer-shaped bell pits from iron ore extraction, boundary banks and ditches, sunken lanes and the sites three farms – Brede High Woods holds fascinating evidence of centuries of human activity.

Full instructions for the day are provided a few days prior. I also provide in-depth follow up with of what we have seen, links to resources online, book recommendations and more.  This will allow you to leave with a safe starting point for identifying your own wild ingredients.  This is NOT a gathering course but purely identification where many rules exist in public places about foraging.  All of these legalities  will be explained on the course itself.

FLAVOUR FRED PRIVATE SERVICES

With 20 years of experience foraging, fermenting, and working with wild ingredients, I’ve honed my skills in using natural wild flavours. Previously, I owned a pub and restaurant and travelled extensively across Europe, learning about the incredible ways to incorporate wild ingredients into cuisine.

Now, I offer a range of private sessions across the South, including:

- FLAVOUR WALKS: My 2.5-hour walks introduce you to foraging for wild flavours, or you can choose an intermediate session for those with more experience. The purpose is to educate you about the rules, identification techniques, folklore, and history associated with wild ingredients. Throughout the walk, we’ll identify seasonal ingredients and compare them to their dangerous counterparts. You can also add food and drink to these experiences.

- TEAM BUILDING AWAY DAYS: Running staff away day sessions for organisations has become increasingly popular. Spending time together to discover the wild flavours and best ways to derive them is always a great topic for conversation. These sessions showcase the value of ingredients and evoke nostalgia among attendees.

- BESPKE MENU DESIGN: If you’re looking to incorporate some of my wild flavours into an event at home or privately, I’d be delighted to cater for any occasion. Whether it’s a birthday, dinner party, or any special event, I’d love to prepare something special for you. We could even collaborate to curate a tasty food and drink menu together.

- PRIVATE BOOKINGS: If you’re seeking a unique and memorable experience that incorporates foraging for flavour, preservation techniques, fermentation, wild booze, and their historical significance, I have plenty of options and ideas to make your event truly unforgettable. Whether it’s a get-together, dinner party, corporate event, team-building, or even bartender and chef staff training sessions, I’d love to hear from you.

📍Woodoaks Farm, Maple Cross, Hertfordshire
📅 27 September - 8th November

Woodoaks Farm lies just to the west of London at Maple Cross in Hertfordshire. It extends to just over 300 acres and includes arable and pastureland and around 75 acres of semi-natural woodland.  The farm was donated to the Soil Association Land Trust in November 2020 to ensure it will be farmed sustainably into the future; producing good food, improving wildlife and continuing to welcome people.

I very much look forward to bringing people to this site which is a strong community hub with wonderful activities throughout the year which also has a brewery, cafe and a great ethos and environment that aligns with my values.

My walks run for 2.5 hours and are an introduction to foraging for wild flavour in order to teach, the rules, identification techniques, responsible & respectful foraging, topics surrounding soil health, folklore and the history associated with wild ingredients.  Throughout the walk we will identify seasonal ingredients and compare and contrast with their dangerous counterparts.  During this I will be regularly visiting certain techniques of preservation and ways in which to create tasty wild ingredients to use at home along with a few tasters.
