Mushroom Hunting

July 3, 2017 Posted by Kiwi Conservation Club

Our family love New Zealands large variety of mushrooms, both edible and toxic. We love heading out mushroom hunting amongst damp scrub and forest walkways, up hills and along the hedgerows of the rural countryside. We take spore prints to help us identify them. Here are some snaps of some of the Boletus, the Prince and the Tree Oyster.
