"Foraging legend" indeed! So many foraging enthusiasts would be so happy if Mr John Wright made his own RUclips channel x

I got lucky this year and had Shaggy Inkcaps in my garden. I was super excited by them being there. 😊

[@WoodlandClassroom]

great, no need to head far from the back door. It will be interesting to see if they come up again in the same place next year

One point with Fair Ring Champignon their is a very toxic lookalike called fools funnel or clitrocybe rivulosa.
