About the event

Autumn Foraging (Members’ Event)
Melverley Meadows | 26th September 2026 | 2:00pm - 4:30pm

Autumn provides a bonanza of fruit, nuts and fungi – come and learn which ones are good to eat, which ones aren’t, and how you can prepare them to make something delicious! Please note, this is a walk for information – we will not be gathering ingredients on this occasion, but you will be inspired to go on your own foraging expeditions hereafter!

Mobility

A kissing gate is the main entrance. The meadows are mostly open once on the site. Flat grassy surfaces around the site, as hay meadows the grass will become long (and sometimes wet) until cut in July. There is the odd muddy gateway.

The site is grazed and cattle can be prone to congregating and creating muddy areas.
