Fab! I've got a few more foraging videos planned! Just on a bit of a pause while we sort out house moving stressy stuff here, back next week!😄

What a fantastic video. A follow up on how you prepare and use would be amazing x

Aww thank you!! Yes I'm thinking of filming one for making cordial, wine, gummies, syrup and maybe even tinctures and oil infusions! It's my aim to fill my apothecary with a dried version, oil version and a tincture version of pretty much everything I use, that way we're fairly covered!😄 Thank you for watching! 💙🩷

Thank you for sharing! I don't forage because I can't vouch for anything, but I enjoyed watching. I laughed at your comment while crushing up the yarrow; it is hard to do things one-handed while you are holding a camera. I was ready to throw a fit while sowing beans this week because I had my camera in my dominant hand. Maybe it will get easier with practice.

Ha yes! The trouble we go through to get good footage ey! I'm genuinely looking for an action camera I like so I can go hands free and not miss stuff! 😄 If you want to try foraging I'd say get on a day course with an expert. You can read lots but there's nothing like actually getting out there and getting your hands dirty!! So worth it in my opinion!! Thank you for watching! 🩷💙
