For centuries, it seems Britain’s magic mushrooms remained hidden in plain sight—growing in fields, parks, and hillsides. When knowledge of them did emerge, it passed between people through rumours, oral testimony, underground publications, and increasingly, reports of court cases.
Robert Dickens of The Psychedelic Press came to the Bureau to tell the extraordinary story of the Psilocybe Pickers: the kids, the Psychonauts, the countercultural explorers, and amateur mycologists who helped elevate a small native fungus into part of Britain’s psychedelic history, folklore, legal case studies, and relationship with the landscape.
We get into that, explode some myths, talk about the power of landscape, fairies and hear about a strange magic mushroom incident in the 18th century
