Want to go further than simple discovery? This 4-hour walk in the heart of the Bois de Vincennes is thecomplete experience: time to learn, practice, pick - and ask all your questions. With Adeline, an expert in botany and plant use, you'll explore the richest corners of the Bois, equipped like a real botanist.

Course of the walk (4h) :

Welcome and equipment distribution: each participant receives a pair of foraging gloves and a field magnifier.
Observation game to introduce basic botanical criteria - without jargon, accessible to all.
Introduction to reading plants: what to look for, where to look, how not to confuse two species.
Exploration of the best picking spots in the heart of the woods, basket in hand.
Friendly picnic break (bring your own) - a chance to talk freely about the day's curiosities, culinary uses and ethnobotany.
We'll send you a recipe sheet after the outing, to help you make the most of your harvest.

Each walk is unique, in tune with the seasons and the plants of the moment. A half-day outing to change the way you look at ordinary nature - for yourself or as a gift. Guaranteed for a minimum of 4 participants.
