Sadly, all Forage events have been cancelled for the foreseeable future. Keep tuning in to see if there’s any change. Thank you for your support.
This is a foraging walk around the Ecos Park in Ballymena, on the lookout for spring greens and other edibles. Leaves are at their best, so we will find nettles, garlic, cow parsley and loads of other stuff. If the weather is OK, we’ll have a go at making nettle soup. Free event, with Mid and East Antrim Council. Meet in the Ecos car park.
