Coastal Foraging with Craig Evans mini series Part 1 The Estuary (edible plants and oysters )
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 16 ก.ย. 2024
- In collaboration with my friends at "Expedition Jack " (Jack and Lily ), we decided to make a mini series from our full days coastal foraging in Pembrokeshire , Wales UK. We started in an estuary,well known for its oysters and edible coastal plants. In part 2, we move to a beach/rocky shore to forage for mussels,cockles, razor clams and anything else we could find. Then in part 3 we then cook a meal from the ingredients we found while foraging. Apart from some butter, everything in the meal was foraged on the day. Jack is a knowledgeable and proficient film maker,with some very good quality equipment, including a quality drone. It has been a goal of mine to have someone like Jack to film some videos for me on quality equipment and I thank both Jack and Lily for the opportunity. I hope you like the improvement in quality. Jack and Lily have their own TH-cam channel and they have uploaded their version of the days filming. / expeditionjack it is well worth your while visiting as travel content and film quality are amazing !
As you will have gathered, I have had trouble editing my videos,but I am sure you will agree that Jack has done a superlative job on this series and I would like to thank him publicly.
If you would like to join me on one of courses or like some further information then please visit my website www.coastalfora... .
It was such a pleasure to spend this exciting day with you. Both me and Lily learnt so much in the short space of time we spent with you. It's a totally different experience when you can try the foods in real life and you can taste the unexpected flavours. Many Thanks and best wishes to you and Llew, Jack & Lily
Many thanks for your kind words Jack,you are very welcome to come down and sample the foraging and see,close up the very varied and interesting wildlife we have here in Wales UK at any time, I'll even book some nice weather again😉, kind regards Craig
I love your videos so much Craig, please never stop making them! You make eating any meal of the day so much more enjoyable
Craig I have to say every time I watch one of your videos it makes me want to go out and forage in my hometown! Absolutely brilliant!!
Sir you are a legend great videos keep up the good work I salute you thank you so much
I just wanted to say, I watch your videos when I've had a rough day and it makes me feel like there are still lovely, wonderful things in the world!
Wow!! The editing and camera work is amazing! This is a great way to show off the beauty of Wales and your extensive knowledge of the land. Looking forward to part 2!
You deserve every bit of your success craig, a joy to watch. God bless
Love what you do Craig!
Cheers Sebastian, regards Craig
Top video again. Craig knows his way around a bush and how to sniff out the succulent bits.
You are a food treasure and you benefit from the experience of the nature we are exploring these days good luck my dear friend... waiting more videos 👌👍😘
My man Craig is back! Looks like you've ramped up your video production. Well done, as always!
Amazing dad wow x
Jack did a great job,ta Daddy x
Out of any and all foraging videos and channels I've come across over time, yours has consistently always been my favorite and has always been so wonderfully educating. Thank you so much, Mr. Evans for sharing your passion with the world and passing along your knowledge for those of us who aren't as familiar with plant life or marine life as you.
The editing, camera angles and long distance (COLORFUL) shots are exquisite, I find myself quite jealous that I am in the States and not there nearly every time I see the breathtaking beauty of your videos.
Again, thank you so much for sharing your passion with us, the TH-cam world. Here's hoping you're doing fantastically well. Looking forward to your next episode.
Take care and best wishes from the States!
Many thanks for taking the time to write this great comment Kate, however the credit shout go to Jack for his filming and editing skills, best wishes and kind regards from Wales UK, Craig
excellent stuff Mr Evans, my idea of heaven is foraging on the Welsh coast.
I love this! Fantastically informative and interesting. Nicely presented in just a chat format. Really like it
Congratulations Craig! Love you! Thanks for your wonderful videos! From your pal across the globe 🌍
Craig absolutely love your videos ❤
Very well done. Truly broadcast quality.
Happy to see your channel advancing so much. Been watching you for about a year and a half now, happy it's moving forward.
Fantastic video as always would watch all day better than eney programme on tv
I really enjoy these vlogs. You have an impressive knowledge of plants and foraging. Thank you for sharing.
I wish you had more videos. I could watch these all day
A new video from Craig! It's 6am here, I'm gonna watch it after work!
Its so great to see and learn about all the edibles around you! The beginning of the video was super great
I really love the way Uncle Craig says "Delishus"...😊😊😊😊😊 Love from India!
First of all, that intro was so awesome!! Beautiful video. Congrats on your foraging business, definitely living the dream! I'm gonna have to come visit you one day and take that class!! So are you going to be mainly focusing on that? Are you still gonna be uploading on youtube?
Hi Taku, many thanks for your kind words, you will be made very welcome if you come over ,perhaps we could collaborate - I could undertake the foraging / explanation and you could use your expertise in USA/Asian/Sushi cooking,would be great! I could come over to you and do the same. I will focus mainly on my foraging/team building courses . I really enjoy making the videos and sharing our environment with the rest of the world, however since March of this year my views have dropped from an average 300,000 per video to around 10,000 ,with no reduction in content or quality ! I have over 34,000 subscribers, but because TH-cam changed the notification process ,the do not get informed of my uploads. Financially, due to the time/travel/equipment/editing etc, the return for the effort is literally peanuts. Have you seen my website Taku coastalforaging.co.uk , kind regards Craig
@@coastalforagingwithcraigev8447 Yes that would be amazing! People have asked for a collab video of us in my channel several times. You're welcome to visit me anytime, it'll be a good time for sure. I know what you mean about the drop in views. Even myself this month compared to last two months was a lot less. I was thinking since you're not getting as many views it affects mine because I think a lot of the times my videos are in the 'suggested videos' section of your videos. I'll keep at it and hopefully it gets better again! Anyways, I just took a look at your website and its REALLY NICE! I wanted sign up for you extreme low tide class already. Hahaha cheers, Taku
I know this is 11 months late, but when the time comes seeing the two of you collab would be wonders! The informations and experiences just by watching your channels excites me. I look forward to the day both of you meet! Wishing you both all the best!
Hoorah!! Craig is back and better than ever before. Thank you for these amazing videos, the editing and quality were on point.
Brilliant video as normal. Thank you so much.
I'm excited to catch the rest of the series! Keep up the good work
Thank you again! Great educational video😍😍😍😍
Love!! 😎
Woooow! Love the intro there Craig! 👐🏻👐🏻
That's a brilliant change in camera work. Great work Jack!
His reaction the the 10 year old oyster has to be one of the best
I love your videos, you are such a lovely, charming and knowledgeable man. Thank you for sharing your beautiful shorelines, your knowledge about these wild foods and how to gather and cook them.

Amazing as always. So pleased you can do this as a job as you are so knowledgeable and I have enjoyed every video and learnt so much. All the best Craig x
I always look forward to your videos, Craig, and wish I lived close to your area! This video is wonderful & is just the vehicle to help introduce people to your classes & videos. Great work as well, Jack & Lily, and the production certainly looks & sounds professional. The next time I'm in the UK, I'll have to take a trip to Wales! Thanks again, Craig, for introducing me to dining at the seashore :)
Amazing !! Well worth the wait. Always enjoy your videos😀
Craig needs a T shirt that says "Not to my taste" 😂😂😂
cracking vid craig well done boyo best regards from the briton ferry boy !
This video was awesome 👏 👍
I’ve been watching you for a long time and it just keeps getting better!
Great video
Love craig evens. Great step up in quality video, cant wait to see one like this full of crustaceans and seafood. Be proud sir, superb stuff.
So glad you're doing this. Always excited to see a new video from you!
I really enjoy this kind of videos... salut from Barcelona!
Heckin wholesome
Lovely video Craig, you are an excellent guide.
Ah, that was a long wait :) But this new mini-series shapes up to be very interesting. I recognised some of edible plants you showed to us. They grow in our forests, and are gathered and processed. For example: we turn ripe elderberries into a syrup - tasty and very healthy in the winter :)
Wow. Nice intro.
nice !
Wow lovely!!!
nice one craig thank you
If you eat enough of the wild lettuce, it will make you tired. The white sap in it is like a natural painkiller. One time I accidentally drugged my entire family because our farm share lady was giving this to us, but she didn't tell us what it was. I put a whole bunch of it in my wild chanterelle mushroom soup, and the soup made everyone super tired.
You should have your own discover show.
Fantastic content very informative! Always look forward to watching your videos
First and yasssss. Been waiting for one of these lol. Time to sit n enjoy
It's been a while since you've posted good to see that you are still making videos. Once again I'd like to suggest that you open your videos to transcribing. I would be very willing to take the time to transcribe so that we can get the full effect of the content and education. Can't wait to see the rest of the series!
Also, love the new close up shots. Very well done!
Amazing video Craig the new editing is very good
- I love your videos!! 💓💯🍻🥁
Stunning video mate.
Hi, please do more coastal foraging videos but with high video quality, like this one has. Thank you.
