Weekend wild mushroom meals with a loved one is such a treat, and a humbling reminder as to why I love foraging so dearly.....

Was able to bring home some black trumpets, chanterelles and hedgehogs again over the weekend. It's so nice to get out into the woods and see them alive and well with all this rain we are getting. A much needed season after a couple of underwhelming summers.

Chanterelles with sauteed onion and parsley poured over a venison steak that was gifted to me, and on a hearty toast with roasted garlic and goat cheese. Yum. The black trumpets were folded into an omelette in the morning with the leftover venison and goat cheese. Absolutely delicious.

Hope everyone is having fun out there. If you're new to foraging and are putting in the leg work there's a good chance this will be your year. Get out there and enjoy the bounty! If I don't see you here,πŸŒ²πŸ„ I'll see you in the woods πŸ„πŸŒ²

Well folks.....we are definitely not in a drought this year and the woods are already alive with beautiful and delicious summer mushrooms. Went out to take an early look and was able to come across some wonderful kings. I left the chanterelles to grow mostly but picked some perfect buttons and a few black trumpets to make a tasty risotto. Dinner was so good I forgot to take pictures, but it's always such a treat to smother a good steak with as many porcini as you can eat and the chanterelle risotto was to die for 🀀.... Also never count out the power of a simple wild mushroom toast made with a good asiago bread, kings sauteed in butter, some diced shallots and fresh parsley. It felt good to bring something wonderful home from the woods again and feed it to folks I love and care about. This is what it's all about people. Enjoy the bounty this rainy season is bringing us my friends, and as always......

We now return to our regularly scheduled program.......

Hello my dear and faithful forest friends. It's been some time.......I hope you've found yourself enjoying the woods and waters wherever you call home this spring, and are ready for what I believe may be a stellar summer foraging season πŸ˜ƒ

As for today........

Happy summer solstice β˜€οΈ

Chanterelles are pining. If the rain continues I suspect we will have a fun season for some of my summer favoritesπŸ˜πŸ„ I'm seeing alot of species a little early this year, and that's a great sign for what I hope is to follow....

The solstice reminds us of the return of life and light, and the promise of ever evolving change as we rotate through this time and space. Let us get out into our woods and waters and enjoy it. Let's dig our fingers into the fruit of the earth and connect to it. I wish you all the best of luck during this summers wild food foraging season and look forward to sharing with you again and adding new content and media... Have fun and find yourself while you feed yourself out there!!

As always......I'll see you in the woods 🌲
