Patterson tells court she stored foraged and shop-bought mushrooms in same container
Erin Patterson says she planned to immediately use the dried mushrooms she bought from an Asian grocer in April 2023.
She says when she opened them they had a “pungent” smell. She put them in a plastic container which she then used to store them at her Leongatha home, the court hears.
Patterson says mushrooms she foraged in May and June of 2023 were dehydrated and stored at home.
Under questioning by barrister Colin Mandy SC, Patterson said mushrooms she foraged during this period were placed in a container that contained store-bought dried mushrooms.
