The Gourmet Hedgerow
It's Springtime and many walkers are recognizing new growth in the hedgerow. We know there is much which can be harvested to add a zing to our plate, but which plant and what does it taste like? So Rose and I join Diana Bateman once again on a gourmet hedgerow walk, to find things which not only are edible, but taste great. Plus we have the satisfaction on knowing it saves us a small fortune in trendy restaurants!

One form of traveling we haven't covered so far on The Outdoor Station is horseback. Mainly because we assumed that very few, if any, people still travel this way.
However, how wrong we were! We are fortunate to meet a member of The Long Riders Guild. Lightweight horse riders out to see the world, and boy do they travel some miles!
