Mushrooms are the Future. I grew up on a farm that had fields full of Field Mushrooms and Puffballs every autumn. We also had Shaggy Inkcaps and a large number of others fungi too. The Inkcaps grew in a straight line across a large field next to an ancient bridleway. I always wondered why. Now I know – there used to be a hedge there, an ancient hedge.
I have never worked on another farm since with a huge variety of fungi out there. They were always near the edge of the wood or a hedge. Sometimes they would appear where a hedge used to be! Key to this is that we used very little artificial fertiliser and no herbicides.
Mushrooms are the future of our world. When we destroy ancient forest, we destroy a vast network of underground piping and plumbing that helps capture carbon and sustain our world.
