Mushroom Mania Raffle Prize!!!

Hey NCKA, Scotty here,
Anout six months ago I just happen to be a real lucky guy. Yeah see I won a raffle prize at Albion. It was an introduction into the mushroom world, 4 quarts of dried mushrooms, books, gear, and a mushroom hunting adventure. Turns out the adventure was very bountiful!
Alot of you know Dylan is behind this and that dude is great !
A unique individual he is! Chef, mushroom hunter extraordinaire, and he knows so much about the mushroom world! He was a great tour guide as well, brought us in the forest,  explained a whole bunch of things before he let us go and throughout the day we ended up with over 5 pounds of black trumpet, Chantrel, Hedgehog,and yellow feet.
Ended the day with some Crab fresh from the Princess in Noyo and
sautéed mushrooms! Man that was good!
Ur not getting much Fishporn this time of year so I can only offer

No pictures =  never happened 

So glad to hear that raffle prize went to good use! Be safe out there! Been Mushroom Hunting for over 15 years and still learning and finding new mushrooms and fungi. Definity a great bounty to be had.  Black Trumpets are one of my favorites that's for sure but so many great varieties.

Leave no trace when out foraging.

Beauuuuties!

Nice to see you enjoying your prize! Been doing some minor hunting in the yard, always fun to see those fungi growing!

similarly, i was looking at buying some spores from a commercial grower.  Just not sure which kind.  We do have some heeeyuge shrooms growing in the yard already.  They look like portabellos on steroids.  def not jack o lanterns

i've always wanted to go on a guided shroom forage

We joined a free group foraging outing at UCSC once and it was a bunch of fun.  We gathered a bunch of specimens for a show and tell the leader was giving to students. 

Wow. What a harvest. Eating good in the neighborhood.
