i'm dead curious to learn more about identifying mushrooms in the wild, i see them all the time on my walks in coasts and woods, so i'm going to make an effort to learn directly from people who know what they're doing this autumn and join in the fun : )

here's a list so far of some local (south devon) ones i've managed to find (these people haven't quite made it to the 21st century with the internetz and all that, it seems...

if you plan on going make sure you call and book in advance, sounds like they're popular and keep numbers limited (probably another reason why finding out when/where they are online is such a f'ing faff!)
