Wild mushrooms?

Options
Hi all,

Was wondering if anyone has tried foraging for wild mushrooms? I've been reading a bit about it and it sounds like the key is to be absolutely sure you know what you're eating - use more than one book and/or website to check. So I'm tempted to give it a go sometime, though I'm still a bit nervous!

    I think that's one of those things where you really need to go on a course.

    The Downsizer forum has a lot of information about mushrooms though, so it's worth having a read.

    It is. :)
    It's very much a community. I got some of my chickens from members on there.
