GalilEAT offers an opportunity to participate in the tradition of foraging wild plants, guided by hosts from one of the Galilean villages.
On the foraging tour, we will receive explanations on edible, medicinal, and poisonous wild plants that we should be careful of.
We will learn how to identify the different plants, how to distinguish between them, and of course which parts of the plants are edible.
At the end of the tour, we will learn how to clean, prepare, and cook the wild plants that we foraged from the fields. Finally, we will sit at the table to enjoy what we have gathered and prepared.
The foraging tours depart in the winter and early spring, starting in mid-January and lasting until the end of March.
Paul Nirens, who came to the Galilee from Australia, was enthusiastic about the multicultural cuisine that exists here and founded GalilEAT to expose the Galilean culinary experience to the general public.
Western Galilee Now is a registered non-profit grassroots organization (NGO) promoting awareness and appreciation for the region’s boutique wines, beers, food and produce, along with its cultural diversity, its historic traditions and the area’s scenic routes nestled between the mountains and the Mediterranean Sea acting as a Chamber of Commerce to boutique tourism operators in the region.
We expose the visitors to the unique heritage and hospitality through workshops, culinary events, art, music, guides tours, festivals and also through our Tourist Information Center in Akko, owned by JNF USA which we were chosen to operate since Jan. 2016.
Our vision is to develop local and foreign tourism based on close cooperation between all the interested parties in the region.
