Hi, I’m Kathryn Clover, owner of Hedgewitch Adventures. I have taught wild food foraging and cookery for 15 years. I teach courses for the general public as well as privately. I also lived in a hazel pole bender in the woods for 3 years and started 3 ecovillage projects and community gardens, including Syon Lane Community Allotment, Hounslow Community Land Project, West London and Fishermead Community Garden, Milton Keynes.
I’ve been featured on BBC Focus East-West and Tring Radio. I hold a Certificate of Herbal Studies approved by the NIHM (National Institute Of Herbal Medicine) as well as Food Health & Hygiene training. I also write regularly for Bushcraft Magazine (UK) and Backwoods Home (US). View my articles on my online portffolio at

For the last 15 years I have lived on a narrowboat moored on the Grand Union Canal with my son and my cat! I love low-impact boat life, being so close to wilderness has always been my dream. I believe in a future where we are fully connected with our environment and our sustainable, locally-produced lifestyle means less fear and strife on a planet presently obsessed with fossil fuels.
I’ve run courses for:
The Parks Trust MK, The Scouts, The Women’s Institute, The Open University, The Trefoil Guild (Guides), Nature’s Harvest Health Foods, plus birthday parties, team-building and private events!
I have Public Liability Insurance/ Enhanced DBS /Food Hygiene & First Aid Certificates. Tailored Risk Assessments on request.

H.A. Reviews
“It’s like learning to read -the hedge is not just a green blur anymore!”
Matt, Milton Keynes
‘I’ve attended several of Kat’s foraging walks and also the herbal remedies workshop. I absolutely love learning about her lived experience of foraging and actively using the herbs in a creative way in her daily life. Learning from Kat has given me confidence to take away the knowledge and experiment with herbs.’
Zeenat Quadir, Luton

Rachael, Hemel Hempstead
