A compact visual introduction to UK mushrooms and foraging basics

Organized as a concise, image-led handbook, this guide introduces more than 30 mushrooms found in the UK alongside photographs, identification notes, a seasonal calendar, and logbook pages. It also outlines basic mycology, four steps for foraging, storage and preservation methods, and recipes using wild mushrooms. Poisonous varieties are included as species to avoid. Its practical scope makes it a reference for building familiarity with common fungi rather than an exhaustive field catalogue; the book presents its own foraging guidance and identification information.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • UK nature enthusiasts beginning to explore mushrooms
  • Foragers seeking a compact visual reference with seasonal information
  • Cooks interested in the book's wild mushroom recipes and storage guidance
