Detailed description:You will spend the afternoon foraging with an expert in Hackney, where you can find anything from the expected wild garlic, mushroom and berries to the more surprising kiwi and wild plums and much more. Your forager has spent years running and creating in some of the best cocktail bars in the country and so will include tips and guides on using these to make syrups & detailed explanation on sustainable practises you can achieve at home like fermentation, pickling, fat washing and citrus blends to turn waste into delicious possibilities.

After you've collected some ingrediants, you will then be taken to the world renowned Silo restaurant in Hackney Wick where a 6 course tasting menu of the finest local ingrediants will ignite your taste buds and fire your imagination for your own creations.
Being sustainable and helping the world issue of waste has never been more fun or felt so good!
I've worked in some of the best cocktail bars for years all over the UK, so being able to translate what we find to understandable and practical use is something i've done with customers and staff for years. I live in East London so know the history well and so can add histroy and societal depth to the experience.
