Time: An hour, early evening
Place: Hendon Park
Gathered: a handful of fairy ring champignons, a smaller handful of mulberries
The hazelnuts are nearly all gone now, the squirrels have got the lot! There may still be time to experiment with acorns, although they do require significant preparation.
The mulberries are almost gone now, they’re too delicious to keep hanging around and they don’t last well once they are off the tree.
The fairy ring champignons will very shortly be an omelet ingredient in my brunch. Yum!
This afternoon there is a plan for blackberry picking, so I’ll probably have another foraging log in the next few days.
Note: The Utopia Experiment is still desperately short-handed, if you think you can get up there, even for a weekend, please join the Yahoo! group and let us know when you can get there.

Your hazelnuts are gone? Ours are only just coming in!
