Hedgerow Berry Bootleggers - Drink making from Forest foraging

Just for adults, join us for an early autumn stroll around the woodland at Middle Spernal Farm collecting berries from the established hedgerows before heading back to use your foraging finds to inspire your choice of drink, using the recipe card suggestions as a guide.

Ellie and Andrea from the Forest team will provide you will all you need to create something that will tickle your taste buds - however if you like the idea of a stronger option like sloe gin, rosehip vodka, blackberry whiskey or hawthorn gin then please do bring 250-350ml of your spirit of choice.

This will be a social morning, a chance to enjoy the changing season, a gentle 2 to 3 mile walk, a hands on workshop , an opportunity to meet new friends - and have some berry bootleg to take home, ready to enjoy in time for Christmas.

Tickets are priced at £25 which include all the materials needed for the drink making workshop, excluding any spirit alcohol you choose to bring. There is the option to select a charity ticket which includes an extra donation and the option to apply gift aid which will benefit the charity by an additional 25% without any cost to yourself. Tickets are limited so please book early. This event is not suitable for dogs.
