Foraging forecast: Devon
Yes — conditions in Devon in November 2026 are good, index 68 out of 100, with field blewit furthest along. That is a reading of weather, woodland and season: it does not promise you a full basket, but this is one of the weeks worth going out.
A seven-day index for the species whose records are confirmed here — 28 of them right now. Flush phases and the factors behind the number, instead of a "chance of finding" percentage we cannot measure. Data updated 2 November 2026, 02:10 GMT.
The map is built from the measurement network — one point per sizeable town and more in between. A detailed 2.5 km grid is computed for one region so far: it needs its own run for every cell.
Across the region today: 62 to 77, measured at 27 stations. Among towns the highest is Tavistock (77) and the lowest Tiverton (62). This is weather, not a catch: a higher number means better conditions, and the mushroom grows in one particular wood.
Biting insects: next to none. What to bring.

Numbers are taken at the measurement point nearest the centre of the region — a real calculation at one place, not an average over the whole area. A town an hour away will read differently, and its own page says so.
Forecast by town
Every town is computed on its own: the index is taken at the measurement point nearest to it, not averaged over the region. Neighbouring towns can differ by tens of points.
