I was blown away by the extensive knowledge of Karen and how much very valuable information she packed into the session. As a bit of a visual learner I really appreciated all the lovely photos and just her passion and genuine desire to respond to our questions and pass on her wisdom. I also learned about new berries I had never heard of and will be sure to look out for them.
