Teach Foraging Success Evidence

Lucy, Wild Roots Foraging

The teach foraging course was not only a thorough course, it was utterly enjoyable, too from start to finish! Di has a fantastic way of ensuring all areas are covered, and that everyone understands and is on the same page. It wasn't just about learning to teach foraging but how to set up a business, including all the marketing, costings, and tech stuff that you might otherwise overlook. All if this enabled me to start my own successful business Wild Roots and I’ll be eternally grateful for Di for helping me find my true path.
