North Cascadian Tree Indentification ...A guide useful in mushroom hunting

  

This is an extremely helpful guide  to aid in  your forays for mushrooms in the North Cascades and other parts of Washington state. Certain types of trees create conducive  environments for specific types of mushrooms.  Once you learn these trees, you can possibly find locations where those respective mushrooms may grow!

Fall Mushroom Walk October 18th, 2014 9am to 6pm

Greg Hovander is doing his fall season mushroom class  and hunt October 18th, 2014.   We start at 9 am sharp at Sultan Park and Ride. Bring your own snacks but a lunch made from edibles we find will be prepared as late as up to 3 pm. We will be back by 6pm.  There are only a few spots left. Please have your credit/debit card ready if you want to reserve one of the last remaining spots for this years mycology lessons, mushroom identification and knowledge about other wild edibles.  If you are coming from Seattle, Sultan Park and Ride which is right on Highway 2, is approximately 45 miles from the heart of downtown and an hour drive. Please call 360-793-8813 to reserve your spot.

Greg only does on mushroom hunt per fall! He also does a walk in spring which includes more time identifying wild edibles and medicinal plants. You will learn what signs you need to look for to help locate  areas mushrooms are growing. Of course, you will learn how to identify mushrooms and other wild edibles we come across in our foray. We expect to find several types of mushrooms including chantrelles, lobster mushrooms and so much more.

We had fun! We found several genus of mushrooms and enjoyed a communal meal of our findings from the Fall Mushroom walk 2014!

here are some photos from our foray please feel free to add more!
