Campfire Snacks

At each session, we cook a seasonal snack on the campfire for all attending children 🔥

All food is vegetarian (with vegan and “free from” options available where possible).

At the start of your session week, you’ll receive an email with details of the snack and what to bring (e.g. bowl, plate, cup).

We also recommend bringing extra snacks and a drink, as children often get very hungry in the woods!

Seasonal food

With the changing seasons, we sometimes forage ingredients from the woods and surrounding hedgerows. This gives children the chance to try new tastes and learn about seasonal, foraged foods.

At times, children are also involved in preparing or cooking their own snack over the fire 🔥

Examples of foraged snacks:

Hawthorn ketchup with vegan sausages
Nettle bread or tea
Elderberry & blackberry jam
Apples with cinnamon sugar
Wild garlic bread

Other snacks include:

Cheesy pitta breads
Hot chocolate
Marshmallow s’mores (vegan option available)
Spiced chai
Damper bread

We gently encourage children to try the snack — even if they don’t like it, it’s great to give it a go! Often, children enjoy foods in the woods that they might not usually eat at home, especially with that smoky campfire flavour 😊
