Lending a helping hand to rescued animals @the-moons
It's time to muck in ( or out) and get cleaning and feeding all of the animals at the Moon ranch. I will be joining Melissa and my daughter to look after all of the animals whilst my friends Jen, Nick Moon and family take a well deserved break.

    Well wild mushroom picking is best learnt going out with someone who has the knowledge. I learned from family in Czech Republic where the tradition carry on. The British lost the art with the Industrial Revolution when country people moved to cities, you still have some common names around which tell you that mushrooms were collected, like slippery Jack. I also follow woodland husbandry - only take what you need, do not destroy mushrooms you do not know as wild life will want it, properly cover the space you took the mushroom from so that it not disturb the ground , love your videos😊

I would feel better if you would wear gloves when gathering them. Also, during hunting season, please wear a bright green cap, scarf or head band in addition to the vest.
