A Wild Week

It’s been a busy time gearing up for the first issue of WILD, with the inside of Welsh trains becoming all too familiar.

Luckily, the outside of Wales is worth the effort. Last Monday WILD went foraging with bush-craft expert Andrew Price in the Gower.

Did you know that you can not only cook the new shoots of a cat tail rush in the same way as asparagus, but that you can dig up the roots to make crisps and if you beat the heads you get a high-energy snack? Thought not.

WILD also went sit-on-top kayaking in Porthcawl on Wednesday the same week. We had great fun, with loads of laughs, a few man-overboard crises and playing on the sand. Lucky it wasn’t a day later though- even we draw the line at kayaking in the snow!
