Welcome to Mushroomstuff. If you are a person with a love of nature and good food, then we hope you get some value from your visit.
This website has been setup as an extension of our mushroom hunting activity. We have been running mushroom hunts in Ireland since 1998. Our mushroom hunts were founded on the principal of collecting good food from the wild in harmony with the seasons.
To see details of events planned for 2009 please click here . To be kept informed on future events please register your details on the contact us page and we will keep you informed with the occasional email. Our plans are typically only formulated within a month or six weeks of the event date.
We will be at THE ROSE FESTIVAL 2009, at St Anne's park, Raheny, Dublin, 18th &19th July. Come and say hello. We are always glad to see old friends and veterans from our mushroom hunts and to meet those of you who have recently registered with us. it is nice to put a face to the name. As well as talking about all things Fungi we will be selling msuhroom knives, id cards and books. As you can imagine we receive and give a lot of mushroom type presents, and we think our whimsical ceramic and metallic mushrooms and toadstools gift packs will fill the gap while we are waiting for the real thing. Tou can view these by clicking on the Buy Stuff tab.
To view pcitures from our previous events then please go to the mushroom hunts tab and click on any of the specific events, where you will find some great photos under the different events including our trip to the annual mushroom fair in St Bonnet Le Froid. This is a good place to get an idea of what our hunts and trips are like. Also take a look at a clip of one of our hunts on the RTE "Living the Wildlife" nature series.

We will be including mushroom related products and good food items in our shop, as well as other items that we feel may be of interest to our community. We currently have a fungi gift pack available as an unusual Christmas gift option.
Please keep in mind that all our hunts and trips are booked out rapidly, so it is best to register to ensure that you are kept informed of plans as they are confirmed.
