The Ceps Are Here!

Post Comments

After a very very dry spell, at long last the Ceps are making an appearance!

We have been getting reports from various parts of the UK from Pertersfield, Hampshire, Surrey, East Sussex, Northampton, Buckinghamshire and Oxfordshire that after teh recent rains, the Ceps are making a strong appearance. The Fungi season looks to be underway properly!

We have also had a very rare find by our expert Wild Food resident of an Amanita (A. echinocephala). Apparently edible, but illegal to pick them. - these are on the Red list of endangered species. I hope to have an article about that soon.

Book a Foraging Trip:

If you are looking to book a Wild Food and Wild Mushroom forgaing trip then our our resident wild food expert, Geoff Dann, is available for tuition in foraging for fungi. The area covered is Sussex and Surrey. You will need to arrange your own group (maximum 5 persons), dates and locations to be arranged according to demand. The minimum cost is £60 for 2 hours, plus £20 per extra hour. There will be no charge if we don't find anything (which won't happen!)

You can contact Geoff directly on geoffdann @ hotmail.com (or me on nigel.frith @ gmail.com)

Weather Warning: INDIAN SUMMER IS BAD NEWS FOR FUNGI
2011 has been a bit of a patchy season for fungi so far, but the mushrooms often don't really get going in the south of the UK until October anyway. Unfortunately, the current forecast is for a run of the hottest October days on record and the long-term forecasts, for what they are worth,

One not for the pot The Death Cap
14 January 2011 One not for the pot - The Death Cap We've had a brief respite from the bitterly cold weather that's been hanging around since the end of October, and I've been pleasantly surprised by the amount of fungi I found when I went out earlier this week. Plenty of Velve

Its Been The Year Of the Hedgehog
2010 has been a strange year for fungi. It started with the coldest winter since 1963, which was followed, at least in the south east corner of the UK, by the driest summer in living memory. This meant an exceptionally poor off-season. September saw an explosion in fungi and for a
