Last October’s Nature Strollers in the Mediterranean Garden in Roquebrun with Colm and Síle.

Courses for 2012
– Tastes of Languedoc, Nature and Food

This year we are again going to run some short relaxed courses in Le Presbytere.

Síle’s brother Colm Ronayne, nature lover extrordinaire, will be your guide to the natural beauty of this undiscovered part of the Languedoc and Martin will introduce you to its cookery and food.

Colm’s Taste of Languedoc Nature will be two series of four days of short strolls taking in the natural history, plants, birds and insects of our beautiful region. The May walks will reflect the enormous natural diversity of this Mediterranean area where the river valleys separate the mountains from the sea, exploring the Seaside, the Garrigue, and the Waterways of the Vallee d’Orb and the Canal de Midi. The October outings will also look at some of the autumn foods to be garnered from the hedgerows and woods of the area.
