Morels season is upon us

Community iconc/foragingby

Ahoy foragers! I know it's been a cold quiet winter, but we're standing at the base camp of a very fruitful season of foraging! I saw the other day that a morel had been spotted in Georgia, and I did some crunching of data soon to be published on my soon to be published website, and have it on good authority that next week might be our first promising window for morels!

What season/plant are you excited for? What's next on your forage list?

Community iconc/foragingby

For me, ramps and morels! I know we still have a couple of months, but I'm already prepping my knowledge and researching my locations.

Ideas for using candy caps?

Community iconc/foragingby

Candy caps (*Lactatius rubidus*) are fruiting abundantly on the Northern California coast right now. My family and I picked about 2 pounds today. For those unfamiliar, these mushrooms develop a strong maple flavor and odor when dried.

I’ve got my work cut out for me. But the timing should be perfect with thanksgiving.
