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

    • The solicitor is also the Executor. Big mistake, but my Aunt was very old, and this was the Covid years and shortly after so impossible to intervene and get a couple of close relatives to do this.  She had no children so this is the nephews and nieces. He is a single practitioner, and most at his age would have long since retired - there is a question over his competence Two letters have already gone essentially complaining - batted off and 'amusingly' one put the blame on us. There are five on our side, all speaking to each other, and ideally would work as a single point of contact.  But he has said that this is not allowed - we've all given approval to act on each others behalf. There are five on her late husband's side, who have not engaged with us despite the suggestion to work as a team, There is one other, who get's the lion's share, the typicical 'friend', but we are long since challenging the will. I would like to put another complaint together that he has not used modern collective communication (I expect that he is incapable) which had seriously delayed the execution of the will.   I know many in their 80s very adept with smart phones so that is not an ageist comment. The house has deteriorated very badly, with cold, damp and a serious leak.  PM me if you want to see the dreadful condition that it is now in. I would also question why if the five of us are happy to work together why all of us need to confirm in writing.            
    • Isn’t a five yearly electricity safety certificate one of the things the landlord must give for a legal tenancy?
    • Very sorry to hear this, but surely the landlord is responsible for fixing the electrics?  Surely they must be insured for things like this? I hope you get it all sorted out quickly.

This not-for-profit, worker-run, wheelchair accessible music and arts venue at 213-214 Edward Place SE8 5HD THE CRISIS: From Liv, Grace & Sonia, On Friday 31st October, there was a flash flood in Deptford, and we found ourselves with water pouring in through the lighting fixtures, damaging our electrics and sound system.
