The Tourist Board of the Municipality of Konavle organized a very successful and well-attended free workshop on foraging wild edible plants on Saturday, providing participants with the opportunity to discover the natural wealth that Konavle offers.
Under the expert guidance of Katija Živković and Jadranka Ničetić, attendees received advice on an ecological approach to foraging and nature preservation, learning how to properly gather edible plants and incorporate them into their daily diet.
After the fieldwork, participants tasted various dishes prepared with wild plants at the Čilipi Rural House.
Such events allow both local residents and visitors to acquire new skills, learn about the value of wild plants and the ecological aspects of foraging, and recognize the importance of traditional recipes and natural preparations.
The Konavle Tourist Board recognizes the significance of such events, which not only strengthen the connection to nature but also contribute to preserving valuable knowledge about plants and healthy living. Motivated by the growing interest in authentic, educational activities, the board plans to continue offering such programs in future seasons, thus contributing to the preservation of cultural heritage, promoting sustainable tourism, and raising awareness about healthy living and the natural wealth that Konavle has to offer.
