GUIDED WALKING TOURS

Discover the world of wild foods on your doorstep

Hi there! I’m Poppy Smallwood

I’m an outdoor educator qualified in mushroom and wild plant identification. I work in German and English with adults and children in Munich and the surrounding area.

You’re here because you enjoy spending time outside. You want to build greater knowledge and understanding about the living things and ecosystems that surround us. You want to integrate wild foods into your diet in a sustainable and delicious way. Well you’re in the right place!

Learn to identify various plant and mushroom species, to understand their ecological roles and practice safe, sustainable foraging techniques on a guided tour 

Why foraging?

Foraging is an exercise in slowing down and noticing. The trees, plants and fungi that we walk past every day have names, uses and their own unique place in a wider ecosystem.

If you’ve ever found yourself feeling curious about the hardy plants that appear between the cracks in the pavement, or a dead tree covered with mushrooms, then coming on a tour with me is your first step in getting to know them better.

“Paying attention is a form of reciprocity with the living world, receiving the gifts with open eyes and open heart.”
― Robin Wall Kimmerer, Braiding Sweetgrass
