First Pines Near Nanimo

Same forest near Nanaimo, very large and waterlogged White Chanterelles, Firm and no bugs on the Red Juice Milky Caps, and lots of Elfin Saddle. First two Hedghogs I've found near Nanaimo this year.

Above lower left, the one White Chanterelle that I brought home. Even when they were newly emerged (last two weeks?) like this one, most were too waterlogged to bring home.

  1. Same with matustakes. I've found more this year than I could ever hope to use so have been drying them.

    Didn't find a single porcini all season though. As my favorite mushroom it drives me crazy how hard it is to find them!! Maybe it was a bad year?

  3. Hi Marcella, I can have a look. I'm really not an expert in mushrooms, just an interested amateur! I'll send you an e-mail.
