Mushroom foraging sessions - Organise your own group.


The two primary goals of these sessions are to teach you as much as possible about foraging for fungi and to send you home with some samples to try cooking and eating them yourself.

  • The maximum group size is five, unless the session is on private land.
  • Standard duration is 2.5 hours, for which the price is £100 (total, not per person) at the weekend and £80 on a weekday.
  • Prices quoted apply to the whole of Sussex and the immediately adjacent areas of Surrey and Kent.
  • Prices quoted apply during September, October and November.
  • Normal session times are 10:00am-12:30pm and 1:30pm-4:00pm before the clocks go back, and 9.30am-12:00pm and 1:00pm-3:30pm after the clocks go back.
  • These are just guidelines. If you want a longer session, or to go somewhere outside my area or have other requirements not covered here then please contact me and we can work something out.

Mushroom foraging sessions - Booking as an individual.

If you don't want to organise your own group, and you don't want to hire me for a one-to-one session at group price, then please contact me and register your interest and availability.

When (if) there are a mininum of three people who can be accommodated together then I will arrange a specific date and location. The price of these sessions is £40 per head for 2.5 hours. The maximum group size depends on the location, but will not exceed eight.


Mushroom foraging sessions - Buying for somebody as a present.


I get quite a lot of enquiries from people asking for vouchers, or how to buy somebody a session as a present. Of course I am happy to take payment in advance and I can supply a personalised voucher for one 2.5 hour session.

The voucher will be valid from the start of September through to the end of November, but the recipient is advised to contact me at least six weeks before they want to go foraging in order to give me some time to sort out a suitable group for them to join.

Obviously you can also just reserve a private session at group price, in which case the recipient is advised to contact me as soon as they are able to confirm a date, time and location.

Please Note: We are not responsible for any trips run by Geoff Dann, he operates entirely independently and we just help promote him on this site free of charge as he provides content and foraging guidance.

Hi all I found three of these last Autumn, now I'm 99% sure what they are but the shape is different to other pictures I have seen. (I think it may be that these are just old specimens and are fully open.) I found them in a heavily vegetated area underneath a crab apple tree (as you can see.) Can a

Hi Can anyone please tell me what these are? I took one to do a spore print which was an off white-creamy colour at first but I left it for a few days and the spores have now turned a grey colour. I'm not sure what sort of tree it was but it was definitely living if that helps.

I found a clump of seven of these by the side of the road in rural South Warwickshire in mid November 2011. The example here had been knocked out of the ground which was rough, stony grass beneath an Ash tree.

This fungus was one of three discovered in my field this week (December 20th). I gathered them as they were growing on a track over which I was about to drive a tractor. We're in the North Cotswolds (Moreton in Marsh) and the field is grass over clay. There is normally a pony and sheep grazing the f

The cap diameter was around 3cm and the stem was about 3.5cm long. I havent been able to find anything similar in any fungi books. i spotted
