Title: Mushroom law
Post by Ritaratbag on Oct 22^nd, 2014 at 9:35am

In Galicia there is a new law, that no more than 2kg. of wild mushrooms can be picked per person.
No under developed ones or over ripe ones are allowed to be picked.
Also they must be carried in open baskets.
All in hope that spores are left, carried, for further harvests. Fines are in place.

In rural France you can take your fungi into a pharmacy and they will check they are edible. Is there a similar facility here?

Probably.
I have seen posters with pictures in pharmacy, showing the edible and poisonous types.
