π What a fantastic mushroom day! π
Today we enjoyed a brilliant day out with a keen and enthusiastic group, led by Dan from Danβs Mushroom Foraging Lincolnshire.
Everyone was eager to learn, but just as importantly, there was a real appreciation of the need to forage ethically and minimise our impact on the environment.
We collected the odd broken mushroom and took just one specimen of each species to examine, smell and recap our identification skills. We were just as fascinated by the beauty of the inedible mushrooms as we were by learning to recognise the edible ones.
Today wasnβt about everyone going home with a basket full of edible mushrooms. It was about learning to understand habitats, develop identification skills and, above all, appreciate the importance of responsible and ethical foraging. πΏ
A huge thank you to Dan for sharing his incredible wealth of knowledge and experience. We learned so much!
Next yearβs dates 31st October and 13th November! π
