Me and Sam managed to get out the lab this afternoon, and joined Alex from Thirteen to go in search of some Boletes!

He needed more mushrooms for the mushroom soup at the Secret Fungi Festival this weekend! (Talk about, better late than never)

We were in a lovely little spot of private woodland and within less than 5 minutes Sam Durant spots two beauties!..It was a good sign ☝️

We came away with quite a few kilos, plenty for Alex to turn to his yummy soup.

We joked on the way round that he's taking such an amazing ingredient on it's own, and just turning it to soup of all things! With a smug look, Alex replied "precisely.."

Unless you have tried this soup, you won't appreciate just how good it is and why only the finest Porcini make the finest Porcini soup 🍄‍🟫👌

See you this weekend..be quick if you want to try a bowl! 😆

Hello i'm mia, known online as 𓍊𓋼 mia 𓋼𓍊
where I create educational & feel-good content around nature and foraging.
But besides this, i'm a keen fungi identifier and take special interest in the medicinal properties of certain species. I like to add an element of silliness and whimsy into my teachings because I don't take anything too seriously.
Except for the latin names...and poisonous mushrooms obviously.

I'm leading a mushroom foray on friday @ 1.30 and i'll be around all weekend. See ya there!

Join Flete Field Labs at our Secret Fungi Festival for a fascinating exploration of mycoremediation – the extraordinary potential of fungi to help clean up our environment.

This talk will explore the emerging field of mycoremediation and the remarkable role fungi can play in restoring polluted ecosystems. Drawing on Flete Field Lab’s research and field trials, the talk unpacks the science behind fungal remediation before showcasing practical, community-led approaches to improving water quality. Combining accessible science with real-world case studies, it invites participants to see fungi not only as fascinating organisms, but as active collaborators in ecological restoration, demonstrating how curiosity, collective action, and nature-based solutions can inspire new ways of caring for the landscapes we share.

My name is Jade of Fungus & Moon wildlife art.

I create little sculptures from polymer clay. All based on real mushies & mini beasts.

My main passion is to love the unloved, this being slugs and snails mainly and giving them a space to be included in works of art. Like mushrooms they are perishable so I really want to capture the essence of them in wildlife scenes.

Catch Jade in the Workshop Glade and join her crafting your own clay model!
