Yun Hider
Forager
Yun is a Forager and he has spent the last 13 years working as the chefs ‘hands in the forest’, specialising in the sourcing of particularly tasty wild vegetables, fruits and flowers. Walking through forests and tracking up streams, wading across marshes and bogs, ambling along old country lanes and hedgerows, exploring estuaries and the coast, this is his life, searching out and learning about nature’s edible wild bounty. Working outside 52 weeks a year in all weathers has surprising benefits. Picking in driving rain, biting cold winds and snow that leaves your fingers frozen after just twenty minutes is contrasted by spectacular blue-sky days that remind us of how lucky we are.
