“The day foraging with Julie Walker of Full Circle Adventures was truly a remarkable experience.  From giving thanks to the land for its bounty, to learning the identifying characteristics of edible plants all combined with Julie’s obvious passion for, and ease in sharing these nutritious and tasty foods.  The day ends with preparing our harvest in a variety of amazing dishes, all brimming with layers of flavour from the land.  This was for me, a very satisfying experience in understanding wild food sources, their unique characteristics, caring for this harvest and sharing community and a meal with wonderful people. 

Thank you Julie!”

"In February 2019 I saw Julie Walker present at the 'Living in the Natural Environment' Event. Her presentation on 'The Wild Foods of the Forest Floor' was incredibly informative yet approachable. Her passion for wild edible plants is evident and I thoroughly enjoyed her presentation. I was inspired to plant my very own native food garden, which is progressing nicely!"

“Hiking with Julie has awakened my senses, she has taught me to listen to Wildlife, hear running water, and learn about the birds around us. That heightened awareness brings so much pleasure to hiking on the trail.”

“Powderface Ridge was a magical day!”
