i made my first foraging find today! i was far off the trail trying to make my way to a peat bog when i saw this cutie chilling under an upturned stump. unfortunately he was by his self but im still so excited to try it
>>2760869ohhh a chantarelle, found a bunch of those yesterday while playing disc golf
>>2760869OP they are almost never alone, come to that spott multiple times a week, mark it on you map for next year
>>2760945Hell yeah! Hedgehogs, my favourite!
>>2760869
>>2760965It's hard to tell from the pic but if you zoom into the ground in the distance you can see all the patches. There must have been a few thousand of them in a single acre or two.
>>2760966Forgot pic
any idea what mushroom this is? sorry its not whole
>>2760967I am the jellyNice pic anon
I found and ate some boletes weeks ago. People say it tastes nutty, but I honestly thought it resembled eggs more than anything.
moar hedgehogs, not sonic thread tho
>>2762875>>2763386That's a nice ass basket man, I just use one my aunt gave me two decades ago lmao. Autumn getting closer and closer can't wait to get out there and get some, been a really wet late summer here too, so I am hoping for something good
lots of leccinum, just few boletus edulis that i found
>>2764077forgot to add, those few edulis are under the pile, few bay bolete on top
>>2764077never seen a basket with a divider in the middle like that, very cool, would like something like that myself as i tend to collect other plants when i am out foraging, nettles, rose hip, fir shoots etc etc
Many here are picking all the chenterelles. So thought I will try to dig abit. Rotten inside unfortunately.
>>2764082useful when picking mushrooms that need to be blanched first
on left some Lactarius trivialis, on right few boletus edulis, chantterelle and Lactarius lignyotus
>>2765237picked up some lactarius rufus for my father, bolete im going to dry

I've never found edible milk caps, and it annoys me
>>2766492which ones are considered edible there?
>>2766493>which ones are considered edible there?there? i dunno, but here its the saffron milk capand, by edible i dont you mean it wont kill you, but, actually worth eating
>>2766531oh okay, never found saffron milk caps yet, lots of others we find here in finland that we just blanch and then salt them
>>2766538i find plenty of milk caps, the ones with the white sap that smells kinda like latexbut never the valued ones (Denmark)
am i going nuts with these bolete?
Found some lobster mush.
>>2767949Buffalo chicken of the woods.

>>2769065
>>2766492>>2766531>>2766539Here in pennsylvania they're common enough but they have a very "spicy" flavor so I've never harvested them to cook

>>2760869You have a suckable thumb anon
>>2764082what do you do with rose hips?also divided basket anon is making me extremely jealous
