ARCHIVE: July 2011
Our wild food walk today took us all around Dunnikier Woods – a lovely walk with lots of wild food to be found. Not as many berries as we’d hoped (due to a mix of timing and luck) but leaves, flowers and mushrooms to make up for it.
Here are our favourite Wild Berries Recipes (PDF download, 286 KB) and also the recipe for cucumber tomato soup which a supporter asked us for (PDF download 77 KB).

- Wild Food by Roger Phillips
- A hedgerow cookbook by Glennie Kindred
