Sure if he or she is.... If not them u Will get some funny looks!

If i meet someone that I suspect might be an Arbtalker, hos do I find out? Is there à special phrase that indicates that i whish to find out...or some symbol or code? A bit like the early Christians or the gay community and Freemasonrys with their secret handshakes.... Do we have something similar?

Cheers MattyF! Do you know if it was a oneoff tratment or a continious programme?

I'll see what I can do... I dont go up there that often. But maybe I should make the effort for the sake of bragging!

An invitation to foray with me
Xerxses replied to Tony Croft aka hamadryad's topic in Fungi Pictures
You are welcome! I dont have any beech or oak forests on offer but good spots for undisturbed nature with mixed broadleaf nature reserves... Pine and spruce forests with bears, lynx and wolf. Casa Xerxses is open (thats not B&B but up to a reasonable standard anyway)! -

Ah I get you now... I dont know if there will be any written proceedings. The handbook is online and free to use I assume. I will attend the seminar and PM you any written material I can get hold of. Good pictures and perhaps understandable after google translation... TK_Vaxtbaddar_StockholmsStad.pdf

There are lists that can easily be accessed online to what not to pick... The common ones as chantrelles etc are the ones people aim for. Never heard of anyone in Sweden picking either Hen or chicken of the woods.

Looks like I'm traveling to the Arb show... Where is good to stay? Cosy B&B, Bachelorhouse, WMCA, your grannies henhouse.....any ideas? Or do I just go to the local Pub and drink myself into oblivion and fall asleap in the mens room? Good way of travelling from London? Rent a carl, go by train, hitch-hike or what? Suggestions and help needed?!?

We have something called "Allemansrätt" -The Right of Public Access, which give people right (or responsibility) to walk on anyones land and pick mushrooms and edible fungus, berries and so on.... But not REDLISTED, threathened species!:w00t: But what do they know....

The design gives the trees water from the roof runoffs but if the water is exessive the water will pass the beds and run down the normal drainage, thus giving the recipients a decreased amount to deal with and impact delay. Ive been involved in a project where trees that were 30 years were dying due to bad planting pit conditions, the trees were felled and replanted in porous beds "Stockholm style" and the result is 30cm growth every year! This was 7 years ago and the trees are almost as big as the old ones!

The seminar will be held in english and the guided tour to an ongoing project will be held in English, Swedish, French or German.
-
The seminar will be held in English since several of the invited guests are non Swedish speaking. English is widely spoken in Sweden as we start learning english in school at the age of 9 and is complusory for 6 years. Stockholm is the capital of Sweden and is easy to access from several destinations in the UK to its airport Arlanda, or the smaller one Skavsta that runs several daily flights from Stanstead. If anyone missed the link to the invitation i'll repeat it;http://www.calumi.se/storm/gem/

Great pics ! I found Hericium corralloides last year, apparently the only recorded finding in the county! Unfortunatly some moron had broken it off the tree ...

storm Trees Should be an interesting seminar, well worth attending. Stockholm has developed a very healty treestock using porous soils consisting of lumps of rock and designed "treebeds" that is taking advantage of rainwater runoff from the cities roofs:
