    mushrooms popping up everywhere - do you worry?

    Thought it was just us ! We have edible mushrooms growing in the paddock where the horses graze now, we've had them in the past on occasion but nothing like this year. My horses don't touch them, well bess likes to trample them , i tell her to go careful but she doesn't listen.
