SUMMARY:Half Term Special - Getting to know your spring weeds
DESCRIPTION:A botanical exploration for Children\nA spring walk for curious minds of all ages\nTake me to the tickets \n“Fillet of a fenny snake\,\nIn the cauldron boil and bake.\nEye of newt and toe of frog\,\nWool of bat and tongue of dog\,” \n  \nWhat really went into the lotions and potions of olden times? \nJoin us for a family-friendly journey of discovery\, where imagination\, folklore and real plants come together. Spring is the moment when the countryside bursts back into life — and almost every plant you see has a story to tell. Some were used for healing\, some for food\, some for magic\, and some… best left alone. \nEver wondered what “eye of newt” actually was? You might be surprised. \nA walk that fascinates children — and adults too\nLed by Mike Atkinson-Willis of Walking Wiltshire\, this gentle village walk is designed to spark curiosity in children while offering plenty to interest adults. Mike brings deep knowledge of plants\, their traditional uses\, folklore\, and history\, presented in an engaging\, accessible way that invites questions and conversation. \nThis is not a lecture — it’s a shared exploration. Expect stories\, surprises\, and moments of discovery hiding in plain sight. \nEach child will receive a simple spotter guide to help identify some of the plants we encounter. \nWhat to expect\nSpring is unpredictable — and that’s part of the magic. Every walk is different. We’ll explore whatever is putting on its best show that day\, learning how plants have been used for: \n\nmedicine\nfood and flavouring\nhousehold uses\nfolklaw\, legend and belief\n\nAll within the village itself — proving just how much nature is woven into everyday places. \nRoute and accessibility\nThe walk starts outside the Pewsey Heritage Centre and follows the River Avon upstream\, crossing Broomcroft Road into the Scotchel. Time permitting\, we may continue towards Buckleaze Mill before returning. \n\nSuitable for most children\nPushchairs\, prams and strollers should be manageable\nNot suitable for scooters or bikes (this is a slow amble)\nThe route follows the river — it is safe\, but adult supervision is essential\n\nAll children must be accompanied by an adult and remain their responsibility throughout. \nIs it right for you?\nWe aim to be inclusive\, but we won’t claim this walk suits everyone. \nIf you have questions about access\, mobility\, or suitability\, please get in touch — we’re very happy to talk things through. If you have an assistant\, advocate or carer\, they are welcome to attend free of charge (contact us after booking). \nWhere helpful\, we can also meet in advance to walk the route together. \nYour feedback helps us improve access to the countryside for everyone. \nOn the day\nMike from Walking Wiltshire leads the walk\, with Roaming the Paths providing support. \nWe’ll move at a relaxed pace\, stopping often — because it won’t take long before something catches the eye and deserves closer inspection. \n\nBook your place for a thoroughly enjoyable spring walk — and discover the hidden power of some of our most common\, and often overlooked\, plant companions. \n\n

This is about enjoying great food properly. Not rushing\, not piling high\, but discovering what you like and going back for more. \nA Unique Setting\nSet beside the Kennet and Avon Canal in the beautiful Vale of Pewsey\, The Barge Inn offers a relaxed\, characterful setting with a canal-side garden and its distinctive Barn venue. \nThe space is almost fully accessible – DO please contact me with any questions or concerns.

Please contact us to discuss any concerns. \nThis is a traditional Ploughman’s Lunch offering\, with a strong focus on cheese and pork products. If you have specific requirements\, please get in touch and we will do our best to help. \n\nTimed Entry – stay as long as you like\nWe are using timed entry for this event to better manage service flow and product availability. Whilst we will have more than enough food\, occasionally an item may prove exceptionally popular. Timed entry helps ensure that all visitors have the opportunity to sample everything equally. \nEnd of session sales\nWe buy directly from many suppliers to showcase their products. We deliberately overstock\, not only to ensure that it would be impossible for all the food to be consumed\, but also so we can offer these excellent products for you to take home. \nMake a note of your favourites and let us know. Towards the end of service\, we will confirm what is available so that everyone has fair access. \nGet a ticket and let your creativity flourish\, your taste buds will thank you for it.
