This week:
Still finding truffles in my hedge at home (Scotland). 25% of the trees now producing at year 5 (trees from Mycorrhizal Systems Ltd).
Working with Ruairi Hafferty Hay, for his first PhD fieldwork... monitoring of our newly out-planted mycoforestry trees!

🎄If you're having the real-vs-artificial Christmas tree sustainability debate again this year, here's something new to throw into the mix: scientists from the University of Stirling believe Christmas tree plantations could also produce a source of low-carbon protein.

I love this idea. These are the heroes our world needs. One of the most fascinating aspects of fungi is the mycorrhizal relationship certain species develop with other organisms. Even better when they are edible fungi!!
