Autumn is on its way; a slight hint of crispness is in the air and the leaves have just started to turn
on Horsechestnut and Beech.
Possibly the best way to pass weekends in the Autumn are to take a picnic with family or friends and head out for a hike to your local forest, up into the hills or along a bog.There will be plenty to forage along the way, so make sure you remember to bring along plenty of containers for foraging. Children simply love
this day out.You and your family will be rejuvenated for the week ahead.
Blackberry season is now upon us in Ireland and its going to a bumper!
Enjoy your picnic and spend the next couple of hours collecting blackberries for a evening
bake off on your return.
