Fungi to be With TV

Check out some of our fun educational video segments on the local fungi of Hampstead Heath and environs. I have also included a walk I had with Chris Packham which aired on the BBC several years ago.

I will be adding new segments during the year so feel free to revisit from time to time. This first video looks at Spring Fungi…..the St.Georges mushroom.
