Our Roots
The Cotswold Fungus Group was born from a shared passion for the hidden wonders of the forest floor. What started as a small gathering of local nature enthusiasts in the heart of the Cotswolds has grown into a dedicated community of naturalists and mycologists. Our journey is defined by decades of exploration, documentation, and a deep commitment to conserving the unique fungal biodiversity of our region.
