Mushroom Identification & Education

This website is designed to give you accurate information about mushrooms.

​We support mushroom cultivators and the mushroom curious by providing information on which mushrooms you can cultivate, wild mushrooms that you can eat and wild mushrooms that you should avoid.

We do NOT offer a mushroom identification service, whilst we do provide information above on identifying wild mushrooms. This is a guideline and for education purposes, and is by no means extensive. We therefore encourage you to seek more detailed information and resources, to assist you in adequately identifying wild mushrooms.

Take a look at the below for more resources:
