After months of cold we've now got some milder and wetter weather. I've heard one report of St George's mushrooms. Please post if and vaguely where you find any morels. Keen to look but useful to know they are about. Thanks, Hedgerow

I found my first morels of the year today, just a handful found in some wood chippings outside a new building. There are lots more areas of new wood chippings nearby so hopefully there will be some more morels soon. After finding the morels I went for a walk around some areas that St georges grow but found nothing. Instead I came back with some Jew's ears and some wild garlic. Garry
