COPSE rounded off the 'Juicing Season' with two events with the fantastic residents of Queensway in Cranleigh and Parsons Green in Haslemere. We had good numbers, with 10 to 15 residents from around the area, helping at the Queensway juicing on 25th October and then at Parson's Green on 26th October, with lots of lovely unpasteurised apple juice pressed with the residents. We also forgot to mention last month’s Collards Lane Allotment juicing (family Bayliss pictured below) on 21st September attended by 16 plot-holders, which we fitted-in as part of our YCCF grant, at the Haslemere Food Festival was cancelled!

Plantlife gave a fantastic introduction to the differences between waxcaps, other grassland fungi and insight into the use of their new guide and Plantlife Waxcap App - How to Find and Identify Waxcap Fungi - Plantlife on Ebernoe Common. Although the wet weather was a concern we had a fantastic day with minimal rain! Waxcaps are found in unimproved, short-grass, consisting of about 30 species in the Genus Hygrocybe. We picked-up 5 waxcap species in Ebernoe Churchyard, 4 species on the Green and I found a sulphur waxcap in the photo above on an unimproved meadow next to the Common.
