Foraging in the woodland

Celebrate World Environment Week with Sustainable Experiences You'll Love


Last updated on Monday 9 June 2025


This week is World Environment Week, and it’s a chance for all of us to reconnect with nature, rethink how we impact the planet—and maybe even discover new ways to tread more lightly on it. 

At Yuup, we believe the best experiences don’t just create memories—they create positive change. That’s why we’re proud to host a growing number of eco-conscious experiences that inspire, educate, and give back to the environment. Whether you're looking to get your hands dirty, learn something new, or simply spend time outdoors, these experiences are perfect for celebrating our one beautiful planet. 

🪴 Foraging and Wild Medicine Walks 

Reconnect with nature and learn how to identify edible plants, herbs, and fungi with a trained forager. These walks not only deepen your knowledge of local ecosystems but also promote sustainable harvesting and respect for the land.

 🕯️Make Your Own Candles or Natural Skincare 

Create handmade candles or  skincare products using all-natural ingredients and zero plastic. You'll take home something beautiful—and feel good knowing it didn’t cost the Earth.
