Ethical Spring Foraging in Amsterdam

Join me for a walk around parts of the best park in Amsterdam!
We will look at many different edible and medicinal plants, which grow in and around Amsterdam. Learn how to identify, ethically harvest and safely use the plants for health, connection to place and to increase urban self-reliance, whilst caring for the environment.

The walk will be 90 minutes long, led by professional forager and herbalist, Lynn Shore. We will explore some of the best spring herbs in Amsterdam, ones which live in the woods and others that grow alongside local roads and water. There will be a handout to help you afterwards. Bring along a small notebook and pen/cil if you wish and a paper bag to take home some foraged spring cleansers to help you to connect more deeply to local nature.

Wild garlic/Daslook is still in season, so please remember the bag as Allium ursinum has a tendency to hide away in coat pockets and make itself known a day or so later by its characteristic aroma!
