The course is a fun day explor­ing the wild foods of the Cowichan Val­ley. We start with an infor­ma­tive talk in our farm class­room and then head out on to the Trans-Canada Trail which runs by the farm. Before a nice walk through beau­ti­ful and pro­duc­tive farm­lands and for­est we enjoy a nice lunch of a unique and unfor­get­table sam­pling of local food. After the walk we return to the farm for dessert.

We’ll make our lunch from local sea­sonal prod­ucts and a heap of wild foods and mushrooms. Please contact us with any dietary issues, with notice we can accommodate you.
