Welcome to the Forager!
Everything you need to know about foraging for wild foods in London...
Welcome! It's two years since our first clumsy forays into London's wild larder, which resulted in successful batches of nettle pesto and elderflower champagne. Since then our eyes have been opened to the crops available to the Londoner, almost all year round. It's hard not to evangelise — the foods we've made have been at worst encouraging, at best inspiring, while the seasonal cycle has reintroduced a sense of celebration into our eating.
Please have a look around, bearing in mind that we are neither botanical experts nor top chefs. If you have any recipes of your own, or tip-offs regarding abundant areas of the capital, we'd love to hear from you.
