SUMMARY:Edinburgh\, Penicuik Autumn Field Mycology and Mushroom Foraging Co
 urse
DESCRIPTION:\nThis is a specialist Field Mycology and Mushroom Foraging Cou
 rse.\nThe course is perhaps more suited to people who already have experie
 nce identifying mushrooms\, rather than novices. Not suitable for children
  under 12 years.\nKindly park in the Pentland Hills Regional Park car park
 \, not in the Flotterstone Inn car park. This is pinpointed on the map\, t
 hank you.\nYour course leaders will be our resident Mycologist\, Attila Fo
 di and Jordan McKeating.\nOn this course you will learn how to identify ma
 ny interesting fungi. These will include plenty of edible species\, which 
 our foraging instructors will discuss in detail\, plus many other inedible
  and poisonous fungi\, including little brown mushrooms\, polypores\, crus
 ts and many other fascinating species which we hope to find along the way.
 \n\nThe course is designed to help you identify a wide variety of fungi in
  the field\, often with the help of books and chemical tests.\n\nAs with o
 ur normal courses\, this will start with a talk on the rules of foraging a
 nd how to collect properly. \nWe will then set off for roughly a 2.5 hour\
 , slow-paced hour walk\, discussing and collecting what we find. We will t
 hen stop for a wild food late lunch\, prepared by our foraging instructors
 . This will be followed by a detailed identification of the various specie
 s collected on the walk\, where you will be taught how to identify species
  that are a bit more unusual than the mushrooms foragers normally collect.
 \nAfter the course you will receive course notes by email\, listing everyt
 hing found on the day.\n\n\nFor your day\, we recommend you bring:\n\n	Com
 fortable\, weather appropriate clothing and footwear\n	Note pad and pen\n	
 Water / drink to stay hydrated\n	Camera\n\nPlease note that 4pm is only an
  approximate finish time\, which may alter depending on circumstances on t
 he day.\nToilets are available at this venue.
