This is a new course looking at the creative culinary potential inspired by wild foods and campfire cookery with professional chef from Schumacher College. Wayne will lead an experiential day covering cutting edge ideas on health and nutrition as well as a clear fast track methology on opening and deepening our relationships to nature - what he calls 'Radical Amazement'.

The day offers the opportunity to connect to our appreciation, awe and wonder of nature through working with local, wild food and exploring some tasty recipes. Time will be spent cooking around a campfire with wild ingredients and working with experiential exercises to explore our connection to nature. Using wild foods found in our local area and looking at healing the split between our body and mind we have the opportunity to open to feelings of ‘radical amazement’ – a childlike excitement and wonder at exploring the natural world. It is through this feeling experience that our connection to nature lies.

Time: 10am - 4pm

Location: This event will take place at Dartington, near Totnes, in South Devon.
