Thread Name: Fungi identification
Subject: Fungi identification
Although I am a country person and I know not only the names but usually the many uses of all the local wild plants, I've never had the confidence to extend into fungi. I have several books on the subject and when I find mushrooms or toadstools or whatever growing in our garden or mini-wood I look them up. This morning I found a group of what I THINK are tawny grisette mushrooms, which are edible. I'd love to try them but don't quite dare in case I'm wrong and they are actually poisonous. Last year it was the same with what I think were parasol mushrooms.

Anyone got any comments, knowledge, experiences?

Love Lynne
