5 things to do in Scotland this week — from food festivals to a Still Game tour

Who doesn’t sometimes dream of living off the land — particularly with basic shopping bills coming with luxury price tags? This is the perfect time then for this wild food festival, where you can learn from experts on how to tap into nature’s larder. Held at Tir na nOg, a New Age centre at the edge of Loch Lomond and the Trossachs National Park, the festival features foraging walks and plant lore storytellers, a wild food market and workshops covering everything from cooking with seaweed and finding mushrooms to how to make wild plant-infused oils and vinegars. There will also be banquets (booking essential), wild cocktails and plenty of activities for children. Bring cash in case of patchy wi-fi.
