Lost in the forest this Halloween? Know that you can eat the witches butter to survive. Witches butter is an edible fungi that glows a spooky orange in the forest and tastes like a gummy bear with no flavour. But, besides being tasteless and kind of weird
looking, it is rich in polysaccarides (carbohydrates) and is being studied for it's immune boosting properties.
For a video of our foraging crew finding some of these creepy treats on the North Shore last week, check out our blog post. There are 10 tickets left for our November mushroom foraging tours, get them here....
