Queer Foraging

for Queer Migrants and Queer People of Colour

🗓 Dates: 15th March, 29th March, 6th April, 10th May, 1st June
🕒 Time: 10.30 am to 12.30 pm

Spring is coming! And it's time to get outside….

Come on a ramble through east London’s green spaces with artist Maymana Arefin on a spring herb and plant storytelling walk. As we stroll together, we’ll learn about the abundance of plants around us, their folkloric traditions and histories of healing. With a relaxed pace, we’ll take time to connect with our senses, observing and appreciating the natural world. To conclude, Maymana will offer a soothing herbal tea, inviting us to ground and imagine the possibilities that the upcoming season holds.

You just need to bring yourself, some sturdy shoes, a bottle of water! Please note, this walk will be focused on learning about herbs and education on foraging skills, rather than collecting on the day.
