  • In this video I take a newbie foraging for mushrooms. Penny was happy to go on a foray and very excited to find chanterelles, suillus, oyster mushrooms, and learn a lot about other types of fungi and their habitat.
    I thought this video would be a great idea because I am sure there are some questions a new person to the hobby of mushroom hunting might ask that I haven't thought of.
    We found some great mushrooms and had a lot of fun!
    Come along on a journey into mushroom wonderland.

    Mushroom foraging is such a calming and rewarding hobby. Only been doing it for 3 months or so. Really fun.

    I love this video. It makes me really miss living in the PNW. That is where I first developed the love of foraging 20 years ago. Now I'm living in the foothills of the Appalachian mountains in NW Georgia, learning all about the myco environment here

    I love that you two took the time to show someone new to foraging around! I will never forget my first time finding a chanterelle...its so funny how something so small can be such a big deal. I still get excited when foraging, and the more I learn, the more I enjoy it. I'm a new member of the KPMS (this month was my first meeting). I am eager to learn more and get to know the locals in my mushroom community. Keep the videos coming! I love this channel

    I always wash my channelle under water with a soft brush. Any watter added just cooks out. I add butter only after all the watter has evaporated out while sautéing. For me it makes it a lot easier to clean. Especially with the semi subterranean white chantrelle.

    The deer mushroom gets its name from the shape of the spores. Under microscope the spores look like there are "antlers" growing off of them. Deer mushrooms are said to be a bit radishy in flavor.

    In SC I find golden chanterelles in July in valleys, but only if there's been a good amount of rain. Maybe surprising, with the heat we have, but I've done it numerous times.

    I found yellow foot chanterelles in spring. Is that the "winter chanterelle" you're talking about? I think they're supposed to grow in the winter. Micro climate like you were talking. Up around 2000ft snow still on the logging roads.
