Bark mulch mushrooms

Hi everyone

I hope you're all well.

Over the last few days a lot of mushrooms have popped up through bark mulch which is over one old.  Is there something I should've done with the mulch such as turning it over into the existing soil.  I want to be as organic as I can so no wish to get rid of them except perhaps dig up and add to a compost heap or create some sort of plant feed or something?  Am I on the right track in my thinking or has anyone any other suggestions?


Thanks

Carol ☺️

    They'll just disappear once they've done their job. It's that time of year  :)
    It's a place where beautiful isn't enough of a word....



    I live in west central Scotland - not where that photo is...

    Actually so do I and they hold a bit of a fascination for me too, when I'm walking through a woodland I always end up taking photographs, they're kind of quirky ..... lol
