The sight of fantastic fungi doesn’t get old🍄
As the height of the season rolls around again, more and more are popping up. On fallen branches and nestled on the forest floor, you just have to keep your eyes peeled 👀
The magic of spotting the fruiting mushrooms just at the right time is always a joy and inevitably helps us find that childlike curiosity when enjoying a wander through the forest.
Not all are edible, of course, but we've seen chanterelle, oyster, and field mushrooms, to name a few. Just be sure to sign up with a foraging expert via Forest of Dean & Wye Valley if you're not 100% sure and want to learn more. Tudor Farmhouse | Boutique Hotel & 2AA Rosette Restaurant offer foraging lunches in October, which are an ideal way to do it.
Or just embace your inner kid and enjoy the sight of the multitude of mycelium you'll come across on your forest walks this time of year.
