It’s harvest time on farms in many parts of the country & it is also harvest time for wild foods & a growing interest in them. Foraging for blackberries, elderberries and sloes is already happening along country lanes and this week Suzanne Campbell met up with a mushroom forager to learn more about picking wild mushrooms.
Was very honoured to take part in this conversation. Sorry that I had serious trouble with my sound quality which I lament really detracts from the listening experience. Here we discuss Fergus Drennan and my famed Fly Agaric event, we talk about the food and medicine of the Fly Agaric mushroom and in particular many people contact me about having listened to the segment where we discuss using the alcoholic extract as an external remedy for pain relief and in particular against sciatica pain.
A podcast in: Peace, positivity and the pursuit of Fungal Abundance.
If you don’t know of this podcast already, and especially Darren’s endearing intro- do yourself a favour and check it out!
Darren and his magnificent man-bun- how could you not love him?
I was honoured and totally freaked out to be invited onto the Welcome To Mushroom Hour Podcast. I’m so pleased I did it, as so many of you from all around the world have reached out to me. It’s wonderful hearing your stories and feedback. I am blown away to have so many of you connecting with me each day- and all of the interesting experiences and thoughts you’ve shared with me.
I was gathering my thoughts on the morning of the interview and scribbled up this mind map to consider some of the things that Darren suggested he might like to discuss with me.

Highly recommend that you check out his other episodes- he has interviewed some colleagues and absolute heroes of mine:
