Great year for morels- after 2 very poor years. One local picked 6.5 kilos the other day! Sadly not able to go galivanting up and down scree slopes where they love to grow, at the moment- but getting rid of crutches now so there is a couple of mad dad's old spots which are more accessible so will be going hunting next week. Need to replenish my stores.

I grew up hunting wild mushrooms and can easily call myself an expert. Dad lived to 96 on wild mushrooms and mum to 94 - so I am not going to worry about it. Not will I worry about eating wild stawberries, blueberries or raspberries, wild garlic and sorrel, nettles and many many other wild foods.
