Can’t see what you want elsewhere? Looking for something a bit more personal? Why not book a private walk?

Prices start at £175 for a 2.5 hour weekday walk, covering up t0 4 people.

I tend to refer to them as 1:1's, but the price covers up to four adults (I do not charge for under 16's), and personally I honestly think they are far better value for money than my public walks, as the only questions are yours, not the other potential 14 random people, so we can really chat about what interests you and your group personally.

Location wise, I am absolutely happy to be led by you, especially if you have any favourite spots near where you live where you prefer to walk. I generally tend to find that people remember the information far better when they are on familiar ground, and concentrating solely on the plants, rather than everything else. I can also work with you to find somewhere near where you live - or are staying - that would hopefully provide a fab location for learning about forging. However, alternatively I am happy to suggest a few tried and tested spots in the Cotswolds, which I have personally foraged at for many years.

If it would be of interest, I also work with a few very select chefs who are able to offer a spectacular meal afterwards, incorporating many of the forageables we have seen whilst out on our walk. The price of that is obviously higher, but is becoming increasingly popular as an alternative to heading out for a special celebration meal, or bringing in a chef for the evening if you are holidaying. 

Any available dates are offered to anyone who contacts me until I have a firm booking in the diary and the clients are invoiced and have paid.

My standard weekday charge is £175 (for up to 4 adults), plus travel costs, for 2.5 hours, although they often end up being a bit longer. You are also able to add extra adults for £25 per person if you wish. There is a £50 surcharge for weekends and Bank Holidays - firstly, as they are obviously the most popular and fill up quickly, and secondly in an ideal world I like to keep them free for my family.
