You Pickin?!

After the abundant autumn rain we’ve had, mushrooms are…er…mushrooming up everywhere. A morning walk through the countryside looking for your lunch is a treat this time of year. But to avoid it possibly being your last supper, it’s important to go with someone who knows their slippery jacks from their poisonous toadstools. Cameron Russel is one such expert, and he is taking tours throughout May in the valleys and vines of T’Gallant winery on the Mornington Peninsula.
There are two Sunday sessions, 10am and 11.45am, including a tasting plate and glass of pinot, which shares the same flavour spectrum with mushrooms didn’t you know.

Slow guides

The Slow Guides are for anybody who wants to slow down and live it up, seachange without shifting postcode. They celebrate all that’s local, natural, traditional, sensory and most of all gratifying about living in Sydney and Melbourne. Click on a book for a preview.

How to buy a book

Start off slow and get your book the old-fashioned way; pop into a store and say g’day. But if you’re too entranced with what’s happening in your garden, or too preoccupied gazing on a cloud, you could always order one online.
