Welcome to WildMushroomsOnline.co.uk!The UK's Biggest Fungi Foragers Club
Welcome to my new and improved site for fungi lovers and wild food foragers!
If you have arrived at this site then you probably have a passion for fungi foraging and are looking to gain knowledge about the hugely diverse and fascinating world of wild mushrooms.
On the links below you will find a number of sections which will hopefully be a guide to you in your research.
This site contains many pages and they are not always easy to find - if you get stuck, please try using the search box or click "View All Categories"
Do not eat any wild mushrooms without expert guidance. You use this content at your own risk.
Also - share your foraging trips and use the "Post Latest Foraging Trip" feature to tell others about your foraging for anything from fungi, wild plants, wild meat, berries, nuts or herbs.
Latest Foraging Trips
- Submit your latest finds! Show others what you have found. Share your foraging story and talk with others. Learn about wild foods and wild mushrooms
I get lots of people email me and ask if I know of anyone in their area who they can go foraging with for wild mushrooms. I decided that a facility to allow other fungi fans to meet up and share knowledge, tips and locations with would be through an online community.
The "Meet Other Foragers" facility is designed for you to post your stories, also to post photos so fellow readers can help in identification of your wild mushroom finds. The posting boards are also there so you can meet others who you may wish to team up with on a foraging trip. People can contact you via a private "contact me" button so your email address is kept hidden.
Please upload your pictures and stories using the button below.

Good morning everyone, I am a forest school leader, whilst reconnecting children with nature, I have developed an interest in wild mushrooms and foraging. I would love to know more. Does anyone know of a club or society in or around Ashford (Kent) that I could join?
Thank you for your help

Hi,
I find these quite regularly in woods near me - are they one of the trooping funnel types? I used Geoff's book for some idea but couldn't bring any home for closer inspection this time Sorry for poor pictures!

Hiya, I came across this website while trying to find out what’s growing in my yard about 5ft x 7ft of concrete. Only small and I know nothing of mushrooms if I’m going to be honest. I have a dog so I’m slightly worried if he eats any of them. Any help at all would be great.
Thanks!

Hi
Picked these 21 Feb 2018. I am new to mushroom foraging and am using Geoff Dann's book.
These look like edible oysters to me. They were found growing out of a rotten tree trunk on Tooting Bec Common, London.
Any comments on edibility, safety, etc.
thanks
Kyle

Hi there, I found these beauties on the grassland at cuckmere and initially thought they might have been misplaced wood blewits. Yesterday the gills looked more lilac. Now I haven't got a clue. The spore print is very light. Can anyone help?!

Hi... These fungi have popped up in my garden & actually, they pop up every year but I've no idea what they are but I'm really curious. Usually, I just remove them when we mow the lawn but I'm keen to find out what they are.
We did lay a new law many years ago using a local company that specialises
