Wild Forage Booty

Looks like the stipe from some type of amanita

[PharmExOregon]

They’re popping right now in Oregon

[WhereAreTheStones]

I get a good variety in my yard each year

Here’s an example of what you’re looking at @BigM

That’s pretty much what a local ish myco wizard told us as well. I thought it looked like something out of the upside down from Stranger Things, but then again, lots of fungi look that way.

Japanese laceleaf foliage providing a stellar background for these shot

The flush was too small for me to grab, but I found some late fall oysters as I was out collecting wintergreen. Haven’t had a lot of time to forage this year, unfortunately.

Was out looking for LBMs in the dune grass. Only ones I found looked deadly.

Did find a handful of hedgehogs when I got sidetracked and wandered out of my target habitat (in the hopes of matsutake).

It was a nice walk. Pretty sure the other seeker I interacted with had been successful, but they wouldn’t confirm their target nor luck.

Found in Pacific City Oregon this weekend. Not sure what they are other than the Amanitas

[Kingofthekush420]

Definitely the biggest mushroom I have ever seen

Couldnt find the heart to harvest it since its so big, hopefully no one messed with it it was inside a corn maze at a local pumpkin patch

Just got my certificate today. I’m excited to get out in the woods and help folks learn what they can and can’t eat.

I was expecting something different. lol

Yellow morels, peckerheads, and pheasant backs. Mmm, yum!
