🍄 ABOUT PROFESSOR PAUL THOMAS
----------------------------------------------------
After pitching his truffle cultivation business plan on Dragons Den back in 2005 (and winning), Professor Thomas founded Mycorrhizal Systems Ltd and 12 years later became the first successful cultivator of the famous Black Winter Truffle in the UK (Tuber Melanosporum). He has gone on to publish more than 30+ scientific articles and has contributed significantly to what we now know about truffles around the world. He was also kind enough to volunteer his time and be a headline speaker at our first UK Truffle Festival in Sussex in November 2022 →trufflefestiva...

🍄 ABOUT TRUFFLE FORAGER

Hi, my name is Ben Sweet (aka The Truffle Forager)
I'm 33 and live in the UK with my partner Danni and my truffle dog, Buddy.
I'm the co-founder of The UK Truffle Festival and The UK Truffle Dog Championships and I'm totally obsessed with foraging for truffles and mushrooms and dog scent training.
I'm on a Quest to hunt and feast on truffles and document that journey with you on this channel.
I also host the Truffle Forager Podcast where we interview real truffle hunters, dog training experts, and foraging enthusiasts. On the show, we talk all things truffles, dog training and foraging.
