🌿 Introducing The Wild Food Weekend 2026 🌿
This September, Forage Box is hosting something truly special — and there are only 12 places available.
Join me, Gav Ireland, and exceptional wild food chef Alex for an immersive weekend in the beautiful Herefordshire countryside. Two nights, three days, and more wild food than you've ever seen in one place.
You'll forage with me across the stunning local landscape, discovering what's growing, what's edible, and how to use it — then hand everything over to Alex, who'll transform your finds into food that will genuinely stop you in your tracks.
We're talking elderberry cured trout, stuffed pheasant with bramble beet and smoked whiskey jus, crab linguine coastal style, wild harissa venison kebab, and a Saturday night dessert finished with an ember straight from the fire.
And that's just scratching the surface.
This isn't a foraging course with a packed lunch. This is a full wild food experience — expert tuition, extraordinary food, and a small group of like-minded people in a stunning private venue.
📅 Friday 18th – Sunday 20th September 2026
📍 Near Hereford, Herefordshire
👥 12 places only
💰 From £645 — secure your place with just a £99 deposit
Three ticket tiers available — Standard, Premium, and Elite — each with different room and experience options.
This will sell out. If it's calling to you, don't wait.

🦌 Ever wanted to know exactly where your meat comes from?
This Friday in the Lake District, we're running something genuinely special — a full day of wild butchery, foraging and cooking at Graythwaite Adventure by Windermere.
You'll learn to butcher big game properly, head out to forage for wild ingredients to go alongside it, then cook and eat the whole lot together. Hands-on, outdoors, and genuinely unforgettable.
This is the kind of day you'll still be talking about a year from now.
📅 This Friday 8th May, 10am
📍 Graythwaite Adventure, Windermere
🎟️ £100 for the full day including food
Only a handful of spaces left — book here 👇

Quick announcement: as of 1st January 2026, I will no longer be the owner of Forage Box. The last 5 1/2 years I’ve been wonderful, but it was time for me to handover to wonderful Gavin of Found Food UK(). Gavin is an excellent human and will no doubt to take Forage Box to new heights.

For those of you with vouchers or plans to join us in the future, nothing should change with the status of your vouchers and tickets, and in fact I suspect more workshops will be available across the country so please continue to support this small business and getting involved with the wonderful world of foraging.

Thank you to everyone who has supported Forage Box over the last half a decade or so. It means the world that I’ve been able to do this for a living and you lovely folk allowed that to happen.

Cheers, Jim x
