Event Details
Join EcoActiveSocial for a fun day out with the wonderful Marie Power (aka: The Sea Gardener) for seaweed foraging at Cahore, Co Wexford.
This event is ideal for anyone interested in edible wild food and sustainable foraging and will be followed by a light lunch at The Strand Cahore afterwards.
We will meet at The Strand Cahore at 10 am Sunday morning 22nd May 2022 to car pool as parking is very limited at the beach. We will carpool to Glascarrig beach which is just a 2 minute drive away for low tide. After a short introductory talk Marie will show us how to best forage in a sustainable manner and identify edible seaweeds. Marie is renowned for her knowledge and experience on seaweed foraging and is a highly sought after guide – we are delighted to have her guiding us on this event!
Afterwards we will return to The Strand Cahore to enjoy a light lunch in comfortable surroundings. Join us afterwards for a relaxed stroll along the wonderful cliff walk (Cahore Point Waking Trail) with stunning views leading to a gorgeous sandy beach after lunch.
“Foraging for food from the wild is fun, enjoyable and healthy. Whether it’s a family outing in the countryside – or on the seashore – or as part of a wild survival adventure, foraging connects us to the source of our food and to the rest of the natural world. It opens up new taste experiences and can satisfy a need for exploration and experimentation. It can do lots of good things, not least, developing skills in self-sufficiency.” ~ Marie Power
Last few places remaining! Thank to all who have purchased to date – we look forward to seeing you and will be in touch via email beforehand too. 🙂
- Meet 10am at The Strand Cahore
- Seaweed Forage from 10.30am to 11.30am
- Light Lunch at 12 Noon at The Strand Cahore
- Suggest a leisurely walk along Cahore Point Walking Trail afterwards to walk off the lunch 🙂
- It is advisable to wear non slippy shoes such as crocs as the rocks can of course be a little slippery!
- Depending on the weather we also suggest bringing appropriate outdoor clothing such as a light anorak and a jumper.
- No harm to bring spare socks and shoes just in case your feet get wet!
Limited spaces available – Book your tickets today!
We look forward to seeing you on May 22nd!
