Can anyone recommend a seashore foraging course?

[Everything Mac]

I quite fancy taking my mum on a seashore/ seafood foraging course ideally based in or around Dorset. - I think anything more than a 1.5hr drive might be pushing it...

The the only one I've found is fully booked so can anyone give me a few pointers?

Cheers
Andy

Another strong vote for Frazer, I went out in a group from the moot with my Youngling with him... he was informative, ubergood at teaching the safety aspects and from a cheffy background so passionate and informed on useage of the foraged foods too

Fraser+1.
Not only will he show you whats edible, you will learn to id, collect then have a slap up meal with your foraged food.
You will also fall in love with "Shush"', his cat. A real character.

Check out his books on Amazon too.

Does anyone know of a foraging course on the Suffolk/Norfolk coast?

What I've seen floating around the beaches in Norfolk kinda puts me off eating anything that eats outta the sea there

That is Norfolk I guess, here in Suffolk its much better

my main tip would be to purge any filter feeding shell fish in a bucket of salted water for 24 hours before eating. also look up Samphire its worth the forage and costs a small fortune in the shops. hope this helps
