Nature is incredibly generous with us humans, but we don't know how to appreciate it. Thank you for your videos, I have a lot to recover and learn from them.🤗
Here in Ontario, Canada I find the "winter chanterelles" in late September 😅. Crazy to see the black trumpets in December. I am still on a years long hunt for a good flush of them; I have only seen them in tiny, withered sets of two or three so far.
Haha! Had to comment. Great to see you in such high spirits Marlow! I've been loving the madness of the last couple of months in the UK. Ticked off a good number of never-been-found species(including one incredibly vast flush of trompe de la morte) and felt like quite the accomplished forager when I returned to my winter chanterelle spot exactly when I thought they'd be out to be greeted by caps in the literal millions and was able to harvest several kilos without even making a dent. Thanks for the education!
This video is exactly what I was missing. The knowledge of mild winter mushrooms. I come from Eastern Europe where winters used to be very cold and there were no mushrooms to be found after mid October. I wish I watched your winter mushrooms video (that you have mentioned) as I have walked daily in polish forests in later October this year encountering lots of different mushrooms none of which I could identified. I did have a filling that most of the mushroom species were edible but without your knowledge I could not take any home. So, thank you for this very useful and educating video. I will also look up your earlier video edition of “winter mushrooms".
Thanks, this was a lovely little video.. This is the sort of programme I used to enjoy on a Sunday on the BBC....before .... I spent November indoors but went out a few days ago and have been Amazed at what IS in the fields and what IS NOT!
Ahhhh yes, the BBC...... before..... No idea how they still have the nerve to ask for a fee to watch their biased, propaganda laden crap! TV, for my family, kinda died with the advent of the internet. The only reason we still have the TV set up is for the very occasional Netflix series my wife and youngest son watch. The BBC can shove their nonsense, their nonces, and their nasty liberal agendas right up their 🤬
Your channel has been a huge inspiration to mine, don't know if you've ever watched Mushroom Wonderland but I used to just marathon watch your videos. You have so many amazing mushrooms in such a small area there in the UK. I would love to come foraging there sometime. Last summer in Telluride, Colorado I met a guy from the UK who runs the London Fungus Network, Mike. Do you know him? Nice guy. Maybe I can come out that way and collaborate with you someday 🍄🤙
I enjoy your channel too, the only problem is I'm in Ireland and its different weather from UK as it's an island, weather can be similar and at other times very different.
Hi Mushroom Wonderland :) Just checked out some of your vids and certainly if you are ever over here get in touch :). In the meantime keep up the good work
thank you for the lovely video! I live in northern Italy and here we can't find the winter chanterelles that much, I have a very fond memory of them from when I lived in the UK! We do get all the types of milk caps and the blewits. We can still find some boletes and russulae now in the plains, but they're almost over.
Hi to all and happy new year. I'm 55 and live in the South East of England. I've just started my journey into foraging, and am so glad to have found you.
Just wanted to say thanks to Marlow and all of the team at Wild Food UK, your videos and website have been an excellent resource to someone who's been studying and learning about fungi in books for over a year but lacked the field knowledge and experience to forage mushrooms confidently. Your videos and guides helped bridge that gap and I decided to go out foraging and have been lucky enough to find both Lepista nuda and Pleurotus ostreatus in my local woods this winter, a very happy forager indeed!
I don't think it's ugly either. Thanks for all your work. I've really enjoyed watching your videos this year. I'm compiling a playlist of UK foraging so I can help share you out. Good stuff, tip top. Have a great Christmas etc. Fiona from Manchester 🌼
I have found wood blewits with anything spiky mostly bramble and holly but also under sweet chestnut three growing amongst the fallen chestnuts I was thinking maybe deer eat them
"Leave the blushers for me, actually!" This is absolutely my strategy when non-foragers ask "isn't that dangerous?" "Yes, it's perilous, I'm risking my life on a regular basis. You should never ever forage and you should leave all the delicious mushrooms and plants for me!"
There are private sectors that engage in the growing and selling of magic mushroom discreetly. I ordered mine online from a specialist, Briggs_spores on instagram. They ship discreetly to any location.
hi marlo is there anychance u could do a video on chaga mushroom :P i found my 1st today and would like to see what information you could give, ie look alikes ect .. :P thanks love ur videos mate big up hopefully one day come down south with you for a day on the cource :P peece
That candle snuff fungus. Does it grow orangey yellow or black. I have something similar around my rowan tree but they grow in little bunches and are opaque. I've always wondered what they are.
Think I found some velvet shank the other day, and thought they might be included with the winter selection. I’ve heard they’re edible, but are they any good?
bit worried that what you found is not velvet shank if you didn't spot them in this video... just don't overcook them, and 'de gustibus et coloribus non disputandumst, so if you want to know if they're any good, try them for yourself 🌳🕊💚
Probably my favourite wild mushroom, brilliant for pasta recipes, and the best thing about them is you can dry them out and then when you rehydrate them they look at taste exactly the same as new.
I've heard some mixed things about the purple corts. You seem to indicate they're not poisonous. Does that mean some people collect them for the table? Thanks!
There is no real consensus on what is better, some say that cutting leaves the organism open to infection some say that pulling damages the mycelium. Either way you are going to be slightly distressing the mushroom but not a lot. When you don't know what the mushroom is then you need to get a a look at the very base as that's where some key ID features are, so uprooting is required.
What is the email address for the channel.. I think I have a contender for the Yellow Fieldcap Winner.. Not as big as you'd requested but... I was pleased with it... (unless I misidentified it)

😂 I have such a hard time finishing these videos because your enthusiasm makes me wanna get my wellies on and get out
That’s great to hear :)

Love Blewits!
Thanks Marlow, a lot of information there, I've got your book for reference, I'd recommend anyone trying to forage gets it.

Wood ears are a brilliant winter mushroom that I have found in eastern europe. I cover them in melted chocolate.

Another excellent video. Thank you.
I really enjoy your videos. They have helped me as a novice forager stay safe.

Lovely video. Thxz for your clear explaining each of your finds so well. That way I learn the English names.
Always a joy to join you guys virtually on a forage! So informative and very relaxing to watch, thank you and Happy Christmas and New Year! :)
really enjoyed this video, felt like i'd been on a trip to the woods with you hahah
Lovely! Thanks
wow, i've only found black trumpets in the summer here! it's so cool to see what mushrooms are the same in different places but also the differences.
I don't think it's ugly either. Thanks for all your work. I've really enjoyed watching your videos this year. I'm compiling a playlist of UK foraging so I can help share you out. Good stuff, tip top. Have a great Christmas etc. Fiona from Manchester 🌼
you too :)
How could you spot them in the leaves 😄
I love your videos (I just found my first lion's mane!)
Fantastic foraging. I wonder if we can find black trumpets in Australia
16:49 I thought this was a garden hippo sculpture 😂
Awesome video. Beautiful array of mushrooms 🍄
Thank you 😊 💚
Thanks 🙏 teacher.
I have found field blewitts only once and i was so pleased.
Lovely tableau bleu there Marlow/Jordan!
Thanks for all your great uk info 🙏🏽
Happy Winter Solstice (why wait till xmas?!)
🌳🍄🕊❤💚
Been drinking turkey tail mushroom drink.
Never been ill in years.
Nice video 🙂🇬🇷🍄
Replant the mycelium covered stem buts to help encourage new growth.
I didn't skip some of your ads.. God bless..
I have found wood blewits with anything spiky mostly bramble and holly but also under sweet chestnut three growing amongst the fallen chestnuts I was thinking maybe deer eat them
Very inspiring
Good stuff.
"Leave the blushers for me, actually!" This is absolutely my strategy when non-foragers ask "isn't that dangerous?"
"Yes, it's perilous, I'm risking my life on a regular basis. You should never ever forage and you should leave all the delicious mushrooms and plants for me!"
The "BLACK DEATH TRUMPET" named by Foragers.
Correct spelling and punctuation, that's a rarity these days and should not go unnoticed. Thanks
In Scotland, the wood blewit season ends sooner I can't find any after mid-November
There are private sectors that engage in the growing and selling of magic mushroom discreetly. I ordered mine online from a specialist, Briggs_spores on instagram. They ship discreetly to any location.
When you are doing your mushroom forays, can you add a bit more info about the habitat and surroundings. Ta
All of the field blewits I've found this year (around 200 or so, they're everywhere!) are all infested with maggots :( Still to try some, yet.
Just a Little
Proteeein Proteeein
You need to get the really young field blewits if they have fanned out they will have maggots or atleast eggs
@@greatestytcommentator and those exquisitely tiny poopies... 😋
Same. Never found a wood nor field blewit without maggots unfortunately
@@billiverschoore2466 Love a lIl POOPee PoopEee
I havexfound these in such huge numbers. They are difficult to spot.where there's one, there's thousands.
I saw funnel shaped mushrooms, medium big, very clean white. I took a photo but my phone glitched out so I lost the image.
I've heard that you should fry mushrooms in a dry pan to get the moisture out before you add butter, thoughts?
That depends on how moist they are. Blewits hold a lot of water so probably good for them but not bays..
nice 1 do you need to cycle it

Sounds liek something different. send a photo in through the website.
Candlesnuff is a grey Blue with Black tips or bases
@@WildFoodUK1 I found a little Orange Coral thing in Autumn..
I went back to check the other day and it has spread despite the cold.
I dont pick blushers until spring. I am very sure of identification but the rrisk of pahther cap confusion is too risky.
24:00 Might be worth mentioning these make you very ill if eaten about 3 days either side of alcohol?
You might be mistaking the Glistening Ink cap (coprinellus micaceus) with the Common Ink cap (Coprinopsis atramentaria).
Are there any discount codes for buying the pocket guide?
Think I found some velvet shank the other day, and thought they might be included with the winter selection. I’ve heard they’re edible, but are they any good?
bit worried that what you found is not velvet shank if you didn't spot them in this video...
just don't overcook them, and 'de gustibus et coloribus non disputandumst, so if you want to know if they're any good, try them for yourself 🌳🕊💚
Please be absolutely sure they are velvet shanks before considering eating them.
That last mushroom, is that Marasmious oreadeas?
Yes :)
Very tasty mushroom ❤️❤️❤️
Probably my favourite wild mushroom, brilliant for pasta recipes, and the best thing about them is you can dry them out and then when you rehydrate them they look at taste exactly the same as new.

Oi! you gotta loicense for that pokey stabby thing ey?
5:27 Better to called fungi saprotophes Marlow, saprophyte would really be a plant.
Thanks Karsten :) lightbulb moment!
❤
I practise saying its name over and over and i atill cant find craterellus cornucorpoides
I have been picking blewitts for years. I thought I'd found some but they were amanitas. They had the same colour on the cap.
Purple mushrooms make me salivate and want to eat something sweet.
Mushroom foraging iscthecbest occupwtion. You get out of the house, find fungi and get a free meal.
Thanks for info but I thought environmentally that you were supposed to cut mushrooms away from mycelium and not just rip them up.
There is no real consensus on what is better, some say that cutting leaves the organism open to infection some say that pulling damages the mycelium. Either way you are going to be slightly distressing the mushroom but not a lot. When you don't know what the mushroom is then you need to get a a look at the very base as that's where some key ID features are, so uprooting is required.
You missed the Blutits can cause stomach upsets in some people, so check with the book before eating for cooking advice.
No 🍄 🐷 joining you on the search today ❓ 🤷🏼♂
how is this man going around without a jacket and hat and scarf it is baltic

lol wtf
please get a better camera, your videos would be so much better
Hi sir please share yours facebook page I will follow. Big fan from Pakistan.
What mushrooms do you have in Pakistan?
We have different varieties in different states. In my city i saw oysters, velvet foot, armmilaria, popler fungus, and many conks even i observed genoderma growing naturaly.
@@azeemrana6024 lots of those are suprisingly similar to the ones we have in Britain. Are there deadly poisonous mushrooms in pakistan?
@@Ukraineaissance2014 may be i can't exactly say so. Because i am not an expert.
