I went cruising my neighbourhood for some of autumns goodness. I found a little, and had a wonderful day out with one of my dogs!
For anyone picking mushrooms, make sure you know your thing! Species are easily mistaken for each other, and innocent looking ones can send you to the hospital for a long time, even kill you.
So, enjoy what the forest can give you, but take care and make sure you know what you are doing.
(There are even places you can take your mushrooms to get them looked at if you are unsure. Check with your local council or mushroom interest groups for this.)
