I've been wondering about this! There is a Facebook Group called Pickling Peckham Urban Foragers, they might help

There is a serious point about foraging. Out in Kent there may be loads of wild garlic which will be OK to take a relatively small amount. There are 'gangs' of foragers eg Epping Forest picking wild mushrooms for market and destroying eco systems.


I once found a small group picking wild rocket on the Thames past Woolwich. In Sweden we picked wild berries and chantrelle mushrooms, but low population density and lots of land, plus it is something the Swedes (and Italians, Eastern Europeans and even the French do). A bit of cultural stereotyping.....


I saw some bright red spotty mushrooms on a golf course on a walk out towards Surrey, they looked lovely and I should have tried some......

I am not getting your point about killing yourself with 🍄?

For the wild garlic i'm attempting to bring it to my gzrden but failed last year i want to try again i love wild garlic pesto.

Ang there's a difference between foraging and exploiting nature indeed...

Yes I did say that?s what it was upthread!

I made a wild garlic and home made pappardelle (chunky pasta) https://www.bbc.co.uk/food/recipes/wild_garlic_langoustine_02012, as seen on Saturday Kitchen. I didn't use langoustine as don't eat animals.


First time both for the sauce and making pasta - very messy but will give it another go

    • Not sure what the age range is but Woodcraft Folk meet at the East Dulwich Community Centre in Darrell Road on a Tuesday evening.
    • James  may have initiated the boards but there would have been a group of people who would have taken in turn to keep boards up to date. When locks and boards were vandalised  it took some while (around 2 years) for the council to repair/replace and many of the group who maintained them, moved/died. I know James was not seen so much in ED due to  family  illness/bereavement  and I believe he also changed his job.
