| The best thing ever |
"If you go down to the woods today, you’re sure of a mushroom surprise. Fungi experts are predicting a bumper year for wild mushrooms in Scotland this year thanks to a hot and dry summer."
Indeed, the recent trip has been a fungal paradise. Being an experienced mushroom hunter, I was not really surprised as I am aware of the fact that hot dry summers provide excellent conditions for the mycelium to accumulate nutrients, which, with the arrival of cooler weather and rain, translate into beautiful ceps and orange birch boletes and chanterelles. I am going to the forest tomorrow, despite the forecast for torrential rain, and it had better be worth it!
Have a great weekend, everyone, and I'll be back next week, with further reports from the fungi harvest frontline.
