This makes you confident in knowing that wherever your breath takes you, she will guide, encourage and support you.

“Absolutely fantastic foraging experience that has added greatly to our appreciation of the nature we often walk through. Now we’ll be eating our way along the coast path! Rachel was not only incredibly knowledgeable and gave lots of useful insights and information about the plants, their benefits and how to confidently ID them, but was also amazingly friendly and warm. “
