Saying birch polypore is a tinder fungus is more like plain mis-marketing.

It really is rather sad though in a very ironic sort of way.

Much as has been said before - "the list says that to be a proper bushcrafter I need x, y & z... quick, to ebay!"
 
:bluThinki
i can't believe it, if i went for a walk round my local wood i would easily be able to fill several shopping trolleys with the stuff!
i would never think of selling it! :nono: a swap or something seems much more Bushcraft friendly! IMO
 
what is the difference between selling birch polypore to cep, field mushrooms, chanterelle, dried herds, etc:, all of which grow readily in our countryside and are sold in many shops, the growth of ''green'' and health type shops prove people are prepared to buy stuff readily available to anyone, what is the difference between selling different types of mushroom, or say a stick that can be plucked from any hedge, or some hazelnuts or chestnuts or berries that grow abundantly in our countryside but are all sold in shops, common herbs that grow in our hedges are sold in shops, rabbits pigeons fish game and seafood are available to anyone who cares to get it their self but are all sold, even seaweed is sold. A visit to any ''green'' shop or farmers markets will reveal all sorts of nature's goodies for sale, made popular by programmes like Hugh Fearnley Whittingstalls who have done very well for themselves out of it, what's the difference.

I think the type of people buying that stuff arn't going to be bushcrafters, just people happy to buy it. It's going out into the woods and looking for it is the pleasure. It's the journey not the destination. Each to there own really.
