Soppsesongen er i gang i Sverige. Ifølge eksperter har de første kantarellene dukket opp rundt midtsommer.
Noen har allerede funnet sopp i skogen, mens andre gjør seg klare til å lete etter en av de mest populære variantene.
Sesongen byr på mer enn bare kantareller. Michael Krikorev, mykolog ved Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet, sier at de første kantarellene vanligvis dukker opp rundt midtsommer hvert år.
Det er imidlertid fortsatt snakk om små mengder, og soppene er ganske små i størrelse.
