Join us for an exclusive mushroom walk at historical Abbey Manor in Buildwas, Shropshire! Not far from Ironbridge, Telford and Shrewsbury!

Medicinal properties in traditional use:
A clear overview of selected mushrooms and their practical uses, based on species likely to appear this season.

Dual‑extraction basics:
A simple, step‑by‑step explanation of how to make your own mushroom elixirs at home, including why dual extraction matter.
