Skrevet af virksomheden
Foraging and Wild Food Workshops. Wild Gifts. Foraged Ingredients. We believe that wild and foraged food is tastier, healthier and better for the planet than food bought in the supermarket. Plus, time spent foraging is great for your mental and physical health... and it’s good fun too! Our mission is to reconnect people with nature through what they eat, whether that is treating themselves to one of our small-batch products, enjoying a meal made from freshly-picked, wild produce or getting out there themselves on one of our foraging workshops. Our motto: 'Always Wild, Always Sustainable, Always Delicious' is something we stand by and we want foraging to be recognised as a better way of sourcing our food.

Wonderful Forage & Nibble session with…
Wonderful Forage & Nibble session with Jim at Holker Hall. The variety of mushrooms we found was amazing and he was so knowledgable and interesting. We even had chance to "taste" a poisonous mushroom, under supervision of course. It was a truly immersive experience and at the end Jim cooked us up 3 different types of wild mushroom served on his home baked sourdough bread with homemade wild garlic pesto and damson ketchup topped with dried wire weed...delicious. Highly recommended, we will be going on further sessions and brilliant gift also.

Twice cancelled with virtually no notice
I bought my wife a couple of vouchers at Christmas. The first she tried to use was down in Folkestone, an hours drive. No one turned up. The first she knew was when I looked on the website and it said cancelled. Apparently “she should have got an email’, but no email was received. She’s taken tomorrow off work to go to one in Eltham only to be told at 4.55 tonight by email that it’s cancelled tomorrow. She’s livid.

Hello, sorry to read your review.
I am aware that your wife is livid - I read the strong words she used in her direct email to us at the time. It's a shame you felt you needed to make it public too but here we are.
Our event listings do say quite clearly that the email address from both us and Eventbrite does need to be saved so it doesn't go to your junk folder. Unfortunately your wife was the only person in the group to not see the cancellation notice, so we know that the system we use does work as effectively as it possibly can (there isn't another way to communicate with our event guests) but sadly it seems this one slipped through the net.
The good news is that your vouchers have been reinstated so you will be able to use them again across any of our workshops right to the end of 2026. As the cancellation email said, we do also offer a gift from our online shop for those rescheduling, by way of compensation for any inconvenience. This olive branch is given at our own discretion (I tend to not have much time for people who lash out, are rude or send offensive messages) so I welcome you to reach out and I will get this sent out to you.
All the best,
Jim

Mind and palate opening experience
The Foraging Workshop in the Forest of Bowland was both educational and fun. The meal at the end was delicious and full of things we’d never imagined eating. Jim was a great animator, well prepared, full of information, kept up the tempo but very happy to answer questions. Well worth it. Strongly recommended.

A great time
Great few hours with Jim who has a wealth of knowledge on all things foraging and I found it even more interesting than expected. Look forward to learning more about foraging following this, and hopefully finding a few more hen of the woods.

Foraging foodies!
We had a brilliant time foraging greens and mushrooms with Jim in Grizedale Forest. He was enthusiastic and knowledgeable and we had a delicious forest-cooked snack. A great way to spend 3 hours whilst on holiday, thank you so much!

Had a great time on the Forage and Feast event in the Forest of Bowland yesterday led by Jim. It was a very enjoyable 5 hours. Would highly recommend it, learnt a lot about what is growing in ours woods that I normally just walk past. Give it a go you won’t be disappointed.

Fabulous experience,
have just enjoyed a forage and feast experience with a small group of 8 people by Jim, an amazing 5hrs in the Forest of Bowland. Delivering new interesting information and facts, not a dull moment and lots of ideas to take away - I will never curse a nettle again. If in doubt about giving it a try just do it, you wont be disappointed well worth the money.

This is such a great review, thank you for such kind words! Glad you enjoyed the day - it was pretty jam-packed, wasn't it?!
Alex was really great, a master chef on forage cuisine.
Alex was really great. He had so much knowledge on foraging and had us all munching as soon as the day started. After a fabulous stroll round The Fold in Bransford, Worcestershire we were then amazed at the 3 course meal he created why we all sipped on some lovely homemade wine and forage nibbles. Really an amazing experience of what foraging is all about. Thank you Alex

Great 3 hour Forage and Nibble walk in Lancaster.
Did a 3 hour Forage and Nibble walk in Lancaster with Jim. Great knowledge, I've been on a few foraging walks and this was by far the best. We looked at a wide range of plants, berries, fruit and fungi. Being shown a safe way to taste fungi. The mantra, Never Munch on a Hunch. Knowledge is power and life saving. Hoping to do another Forage Box walk soon, hopefully a coastal one next time. Highly recommend.

Eddie who led our course in Chartham,Kent was very knowledgeable and obviously passionate about the subject of foraging for edible things as we walked along the river path.
He made the course interesting and pleasurable, especially at the end when he gave us delicious food containing foraged things. The dandelion root coffee was great!
I hope to do another course sometime soon.
Thanks Eddie!

Vouchers take time to 'arrive'
Bought 2 x voucher for my friends' birthday, which took 5 days to post?! Even though it could also be sent digitally? Why such a delay?!
23. august 2025
Besvarelse fra Forage Box
Hi, thank you for your feedback.
As per the voucher listing and our website FAQs, our advertised dispatch day outside of core Christmas season is Wednesday, but you can request an electronic version earlier if you wish. Please see below for a reminder:
"When will my order arrive?
Outside of busy seasons (Christmas mainly) our delivery day is a Wednesday, so providing that the order is in before Tuesday evening and there are no postal issues, you should receive your order a maximum of a week after ordering, with most being delivered on a Thursday."
and
"Who delivers my order?
We currently use Royal Mail to try to guarantee an overnight delivery. The only exception to this is if your delivery address falls within Forage Box HQ’s local area, in which case it will be hand-delivered by one of the Forage Box team! If you need it sooner, we can arrange for your vouchers to be sent electronically (but the general feedback we receive is that people prefer a physical voucher)"
We are a small company so are restricted to when we can send orders out (we aren't a company like Amazon who have warehouses filled with staff who can dispatch an order in minutes) but do whatever we can to make our customers feel looked after. In this instance, it feels like we couldn't have done much more to inform you about your expected delivery time and you could have requested a digital copy, as per the FAQ above.
I would therefore kindly ask that you rethink your review, especially your star rating (which does so much damage to little businesses when it is not a 5 star one) in light of the above information, which would feel like fair and reasonable action to take considering the circumstances.
I hope your friend likes their gift. You'll be able to see from the vast, vast majority of the reviews on this platform that people tend to love their time with us.
Kind regards,
Jim

My husband and I spent the morning foraging with Claire at cobtree manor. Clair was very knowledgeable and engaging. We've never foraged before and we have just been on an evening work and identified hawthorn, yarrow, sloes and elderberries. It was great fun! Highly recommend.

Knowledge & Fun
What an amazing introduction to foraging we had with Claire at Cobtree Manor today (August 16th 2025)!
A fun, informative and very interactive dive into nature's pharmacy & kitchen! Great knowledge shared and knowledge given in a simple yet engaging way. We'd highly recommend and are already looking at what other offerings Claire provides. Thanks so much.

What a wonderful and informative day, Jim is remarkably informed with regard to the natural world. Everyday plants were given a comprehensive breakdown on its value as a food, with not an e-number in site. Would highly recommend.

Booked a Forage and Feast experience and was amazed about the variety of things that we found within a short distance of Keswick town centre.
