The Farmer met us in the paddock and we went for a walk. Look what we found.

After a good hour or so of mushrooming, the cobwebs were all blown away and The Farmchildren had settled down.

That glade looks a bit like truffle country. You might need to get yourself a pig.
I have memories of collecting field/paddock mushrooms when I was young and I still love the taste of them now, cooked with butter in the frying pan.
What a great adventure/cobweb blowing away thing to do on the beautiful autumn afternoon.
Lovely, just lovely, on toast for tea or in a soup perhaps.
Your farm certainly has different environments. Love your photos.
What a tranquil little Mushroom Spot. I love farms and all their different little spaces
I love mushrooms in cooking but in the garden I HATE THEM!!

Love this. Finding mushies is like finding treasure. What a lovely way to break up the Monday crazy.
I'm always afraid we'll mistake it for a poisonous variety. But I agree, if you could turn that into truffle hunting, I'll come over.
I am seriously envious! Mushrooming in your backyard sounds fabulous and delicious! x
Thank you for your comments. The Farmer is going to cook up the mushies for breakfast.
I was thinking about truffles while we were mushrooming. Someone did a bit of research into how possible they would be here a few years ago (some guy visited, got all enthusiastic and then left and we didn't hear much!) I think the general idea is it would be too hard. Plus fertilisers and some fungicide sprays make a big difference and as we are a broad acre cropping operation, the two wouldn't go together so well. I am sure there would be some kudos to be gained out of just having the pig though....!
