The Blurb; This early season mushroom hunting event will equip you with the basic skills that you need to start collecting and identifying wild mushrooms in the UK. Your course leaders will explain how mushrooms are created by underground networks of mycelium, how to look at and understand their basic key features, gills, cap, stem etc. This is a great time of year to look into mushroom identification, which wild mushroom books will help you and which websites to trust.
The start and end of the mushroom season can be fascinating times in the south of England. Some years many of the choice edible mushrooms come as early as August and September, on other years they appear much later in the season, and we are still out foraging through December…some years various species hardly ‘fruit’ at all.
So join us for a morning mushroom hunting, foraging and identifying wild mushrooms in an area of stunning private woodland. Learn to safely identify edible, medicinal and poisonous mushroom species and get to understand how these amazing organisms protect, regulate and manage the forest eco system.
