What people say about us!

" May I take this opportunity to thank you once again for all your help and expertise in last weeks filming for BBC Country Tracks.  It was great to meet you and the sushi was delicious!".

Caroline   03/10

"Thank you both for your warm welcome and company on one of the most enjoyable days we have spent together in many years. The day encompassed friendship, education, enlightenment, humour, good food and an infectious enthusiasm for nature and it's many aspects. Since returning home the topic of conversation has continuously returned to yourselves and the days events.  We are already planning to hopefully join you next year on the coastal foraging course.  Looking forward to seeing you in the near future."

Graham and Kris   09/09

"The Wild food weekend is by far the best course that I have been on and trust me I've been on a few courses in my time. Great location and you could not wish to meet better people then Chris and Rose who know what their talking about. Having done other courses with other people, I have not gone back on a course with the same provider twice. However I enjoyed the Wild food weekend that much I itend to and will be booking other courses with Chris and Rose. If you like wild food, then do the Wild food weekend, you can't go wrong."

Richard  05/09

"Thank you both very much for making my 60th birthday so memorable.
The day appealed equally to both young and old.
Your enthusiasm was infectious and the day passed so quickly.
We can now all make bread, gut and smoke trout and skin and joint a rabbit The day exceeded all our expectations and that says it all."

David    04/09

"Just wanted to drop you a line to say thanks for a fantastic weekend. I mentioned that I had been looking forward to the course for months and it didn't disapoint.

I thought I'd struggle with the rabbit skinning thing but I didn't, it helped me overcome whatever phobia I had.

Thank you both. Long shall I remember Chris's war cry echoing through the copse:

"Bow for your lives!" "   Keith  03/09

"Just wanted to thank you for a fabulous weekend.  I enjoyed every minute and feel inspired to get out next weekend picking!  If work didn't get in the way I'd be out tomorrow."    Dan

"The content, facilities and tuition were simply outstanding and I really did have the best two days of my life.  I found Chris and Rose to be the most welcoming and friendly hosts - which is often rare on courses!"   Ivan

"Thank you for letting us share your passion for the woods and the wild last week. I shall regard the weeds in my garden with a different eye henceforth!"    Gillian

"Learn to be at one with nature,eat thistles. Rediscover the inner child, go bush for the weekend."

"Chris's enthusiasm is infectious"

"I never used to notice trees and plants. Now I notice so much"  Rachel

The most interesting day we have ever spent! It far exceeded our expectations. You were so welcoming and made us feel very relaxed and comfortable. The planning and thoughtfulness you put into the day really shone through. You took time to find out what we wanted from the day and were very sensitive to our needs and feelings. Having never prepared game before (and being more than a little apprehensive about it) your sensitive and supportive manner was extremely helpful. WeÂ’ve learnt lots of new and exciting things and had wonderful new taste (and smell!!) experiences~ as well as practical skills that will be used routinely in the kitchen forever more! The foliage~ flowers~ fungi and fruits of foraging will feature very highly in our daily diet wherever possible in future. The knowledge and skills you both have complement each other perfectly to provide a fantastic experience. You taught us a great deal and made it truly enjoyable and an unforgettable experience. The location~ facilities and base are idyllic. A perfect day! This is something that everyone should do at least once! And "Taste the Wild" are the people to do it with!     Michelle

"Chris, you really know your stuff..............................................thanks for a great weekend!"    Joanne

"It would be easy to caricature Chris as a latter day hippy, but he knows what he's talking about and his enthusiasm is infectious."     Chris Bond     Yorkshire Post

"You are a woodland 'Pied Piper'.  The kids loved the weekend."   Richard

"Next time I might even tackle the woodlouse pizza"
