Octobre est la saison d'Automne en France où les feuilles des arbres changent leurs couleurs en rouge, orange, jaune, marron avant de tomber. Dans les champs, les bois et les forêts les champignons deviennent murs et sont prêts pour recueillir. Les Français aiment bien aller chercher les champignons sauvages.
October is the season of Autumn in France, when the leaves on the trees turn red, orange, yellow, brown and gold before they fall. In the fields, woods and forests mushrooms ripen and become ready for picking. French people love to collect wild mushrooms.

Il y a des centaines de variétés de champignons qui se trouvent à la campagne, mais il faut les choisir très soigneusement. La raison - il y a beaucoup de variétés de champignons vénineux qui ressemblent aux ceux qui se mangent bien. Quand on en trouve un qu'on ne reconnait pas, il faut aller à la pharmacie. Les pharmaciens français sont tous formés dans l'identification de champignons.
There are hundreds of varieties which grow in the country areas, but you have to be very careful about the ones you pick. This is because many poisonous varieties look very much like the ones which make safe, good eating.
All pharmacists in France have to be trained in identifying which mushrooms are safe to eat and which are not. When people find a mushroom they do not recognise, then they take it to the nearest pharmacy to find out what it is. |
