Today Storm Kitchen will be closed. Apologies for such last minute change of plan!!!.. but the day is calling for harvesting...taking time to gather wild plants and herbs for the making of restorative teas. Amazing Nettle before it goes into flower, Meadow sweet leaves and plantain amongst the many......Calming Meadow sweet grows like wildfire along the canal towpath, she loves the watery edge.
