  • Parque Nacional da Serra da Bocaina, Sao Jose do Barreiro, State of Sao Paulo, Brazil
    Explore the Atlantic Rainforest in the Serra da Bocaina National Park near Paraty. On this fascinating Wild Food Walk leading Brazilian forager, Jorge, will share with you some of his vast knowledge of amazing local plants – their scientific and popular names, their nutritional qualities and medicinal charcteristics. After you meet the guides, there is a short journey by road into the rainforest covered mountains near Paraty. The wild food walk takes place on forest trails in the Altantic Forest. We use a number of different trails to minimise our impact on the environment but on each route, in addition to walking on forest trails, you will also see the agro-forestry system of farming in action and visit waterfalls and swimming holes. After a short talk on safety and responsible foraging Jorge will take you into the forest, identifying and collecting amazing and tasty fruits and flowers, leaves and mushrooms as you go. Jorge will help you identify edible plants and there will be plenty of wide ranging conversation from nutrition, medicine and herbalism to botany, cookery, horticulture and history. At the end of the walk there is a chance to have a refreshing swim in the freshwater swimming holes in the forest. This is a fascinating and fun day out for anyone interested in wild food or just curious about the Rainforest. This Rainforest to Picnic Table tour finishes with a delicious light lunch made with many of the plants you have foraged on the way.

This was unique and super fun and educational. You will love it. Jorge is amazing: we felt so lucky to have had the opportunity to learn from him!

Jorge and Rodrigo were incredible people. They have completely changed our conception of what food is. This experience is not about finding food as we know it in the forest but rather traveling back in time rediscovering the lost knowledge of what forest can provide. To fully enjoy this experience you’ll need to keep an open mind because during the walk you will be discovering things that are edible and consume them. The experience will vary depending on what you happen to find in the forest. There might be a tour or two on the same day so in this case the early birds definitely get the worms. If you have the chance, ask Jorge for restaurant recommendations. He consults with chefs from Paraty and that can definitely enhances your gastronomic experience!

Fiz essa caminhada com amigos e aprendemos muito sobre PANCs - as plantas comestíveis não convencionais. Colhemos cogumelos e flores que foram servidos no almoço. O Jorge, nosso condutor, nos presenteou com um conhecimento incrível de plantas da mata. Algumas delas eu iaté conhecia, mas não tinha ideia de que podia comer. A trilha é fácil e com as paradas fica acessível pra maioria das pessoas. O sítio do Seu Zé, onde almoçamos, proporciona uma paisagem sensacional do vale no Sertão de Taquari. Vale muito a pena pra nós brasileiros conhecermos mais da nossa terra e tudo de bom que ela pode nos oferecer.
