About this event

Ever walked along the coastline and wondered about all of those plants, seaweed and seafood? Are they edible? How do you harvest them? How do you positively identify them? Are you allowed to collect them?

Join expert forager Diego Bonetto on a 2.5 hour workshop learning the what, where and how of collecting a meal from the seashore.

WHAT WILL WE DO?

We will take a walk along Turimetta Beach and learn about coastal wild food, seaside plants, edible seaweeds and their uses from an indigenous and cosmopolitan perspective.

We will touch on issues of legal restrictions, ecology and fragility of ecosystems, stewardship and care for the land and sea.

This is an informative workshop designed to empower people with identification skills. Participants will receive material on the day and follow up links so as to progress with their own research.

Please dress for the weather and bring your camera and notebook if you wish to retain the information. We time this workshop to coincide with low tide however, venturing onto the rock platform can be slippery and will depend on wave conditions.

As part of the workshop, you will be issued with a booklet detailing the most common edibles of the Sydney Basin and notes on edible seaweeds. You will also receive follow-up information about the plants we actually talk about in the workshop.

Please note this workshop is not ideal for less mobile people as we will walk down a steep escarpment to get to the beach.
