The Association of British Fungus Groups
« Thread Started on Feb 27, 2006, 1:09pm »

EYFG is affiliated to the The Association of British Fungus Groups (ABFG)

The ABFG is the U.K.s leading voluntary fungus conservation body. ABFG members are all amateur enthusiasts who want to broaden their interest in fungi and to help with the conservation of mushrooms and toadstools as they come under increased threat from depletion of woodlands and changes in agricultural practice.

The ABFG was founded in 1996 by Michael Jordan, the writer and presenter of the Channel 4 TV series, Mushroom Magic. He is also author of books on fungi including the Encyclopedia of Fungi of Britain and Europe. The Association is committed to bringing more people into amateur mushroom hunting.

If you are interested in mushrooms and toadstools we recommend that you join the ABFG.

ABFG membership benefits include a quarterly magazine, PL insurance cover while on your are forays, free postal identification service, and a range of mycological accessories at discounted prices

An application form for ABFG membership is avaiable from the ABFG website. The annual subscription for 2006 is £16.50 for an individual or £20 for a family.
