I have set up this blog for several essential reasons, or as I call it, The Mushroom Diary Philosophy:

1. I wanted to log/capture all my fungal finds both for my own personal record and also to treat it as a learning curve in my ‘fungi world’ discoveries

2. As an interactive format (web log) in which other likeminded enthusiasts could comment, inform and question their interests. So, as an online communication device (everyones doing it these days), this blog would be a great central hub for all mushroom hunters out there.

I have many mycology reference books which are marvelous, but I think it’s even better if you can get essential feedback from fellow mushroom hunters either in a crisis on identification or just sharing great finds and tasty cooking tips.

3. I hope many will join and enjoy this blog simply as a learning, sharing and enjoyable tool.

Cheers
John Harris
