Mushroom Foraging at Mugdock Country Park
Gourock | Updated: March 17, 2024 02:37 AM
Location: Mugdock Country Park Visitor Centre
Address: 9 Kisworn Pl, Craigend, Mugdock, Glasgow G62 8EL, United Kingdom
Date: 28 September
As the hottest part of the year begins to fade, the undergrowth comes alive with amazing fungi. Allow us to guide you on a journey to understand a fascinating form of life often shunned by modern palates. This course will show you how to identify many of the most frequently-occurring edible fungi, illuminate the dangers of mushroom foraging and how to avoid them, and give tips on what to do with your finds.
The walk will take between 3 & 4hrs, most of which is outdoors and away from facilities. Please eat well beforehand and bring water. Some light snacks will be provided as we recap our finds, but nothing substantial. Please bring any packed lunch or snacks you may want afterward.
This walk takes place across maintained paths, but a basic level of mobility is required, as some steep sections can be a little treacherous when wet. Please wear suitable footwear and be prepared for rain.
