Forage Fine Foods Joins Chapters: A New Wild Food Course for February

By j.bell on 10/12/2025

Chapters is starting the new year with something rather special. After more than a decade of hoping to collaborate, Chapters will finally welcome Liz Knight of Forage Fine Foods for a hands-on wild food workshop on Sunday 1 February — a chance to learn how the flavours growing all around us can transform the way we cook.

Liz has spent the past 15 years teaching people to see their gardens, hedgerows and everyday green spaces in a completely new light. Her courses are renowned for being practical, accessible and full of surprising discoveries. This new half-day session at Chapters brings that expertise directly to Hay on Wye.

What to Expect from the Workshop

Across a focused three-hour session, Liz will introduce the top wild harvests to look out for throughout the coming year. It is designed to help beginners and enthusiastic cooks build confidence in identifying and using edible plants as they come into season.

The workshop will cover:

  • Easy-to-recognise plants that appear month by month
  • Where to find them and how to harvest responsibly
  • Key identification features to ensure safety
  • Why these plants are nutritious and how to use them creatively in the kitchen

Participants will come away with practical knowledge, a clearer understanding of the seasons, and plenty of inspiration to start incorporating wild ingredients into everyday cooking.

Chapters describes the collaboration as long-awaited and deeply exciting — a meeting of two approaches that share a love of flavour, seasonality and thoughtful food.

Who the Workshop Is For

This course is ideal for:

  • Complete beginners looking to try foraging in a safe, structured way
  • Home cooks wanting to add new seasonal flavours
  • Anyone curious about wild ingredients and local food traditions

Liz’s sessions are known for being welcoming and informative, offering something for all levels of experience.
