Mary Ann Kennedy and Lucy Cooke, The Wild Cooke, go in search of nature’s foraging bounty. In The Woods, Lucy shows Mary Ann how to tap birch trees for sap with minimal damage to the tree. The pair also explore Lucy’s beloved fungi, including many folks’ ‘gateway’ mushroom, the chanterelle.

Mary Ann heads for her native Glasgow, exploring the tenement back lanes for a wealth of berries and other fruit. In the Highlands, the pair search for a rare lichen used as a curry spice in other parts of the world, and for bog myrtle they will use later in the year for a sweet which will also fight the midgie!
