Hunting for your supper

It's a great time of year for foraging in North Yorkshire! The hedgerows are packed with good things to eat. If your children need an incentive to go walking in the countryside, this is a great one. And if they won't actually eat your delicious hogweed fritters, warm dandelion salad with wild garlic flowers (bacon bits optional) and crisped nettle garnish, there'll be all the more for you.

There are dozens of websites which can tell you how to start - the Woodland Trust site, for example - and dozens of books (we normally have The Yorkshire Forager in the Information Centre).

​Happy hunting!
