About Vale House Kitchen
The first of its kind in England, Vale House Kitchen offers a selection of courses which give food lovers the opportunity to learn not only how to cook local, seasonal produce, but also how to hunt, forage and fish for the raw ingredients. Gift vouchers are available for all courses on offer.
In the perfect rural location in the village of Timsbury, eight miles southwest of Bath, owners Bod & Annie Griffiths endeavour to make every visit to Vale House Kitchen as bespoke and informative as possible. They have secured the country’s leading professionals, such as Tim Maddams, former Head Chef at River Cottage, Vivien Lloyd, who has 35 years’ experience of making, judging and demonstrating preserves and Sandra Monger, award-winning wedding cake and celebration cake designer to tutor small groups in the traditional rural skills of fly-fishing, shooting, foraging as well as butchery and cookery.
About The Foraging Course
Wander through fields and woodlands during this light and lively introduction to foraging. On this one day foraging course you’ll discover, collect and prepare wild foods with the helpful guidance of accomplished forager, Chris Westgate. You’ll not only learn to identify common wild foods, you’ll marvel at the lost natural history in everyday rhymes and references. Her knowledge of plant lore means Chris is hugely interesting to listen to as you wander through the Timsbury countryside. Lunch is included.
Skills
✹ identifying edible and non-edible plants
✹ how to cook with and eat common garden weeds
✹ sustainable and courteous foraging
