, mushroom season is going strong this year! Foraging class last week found edible porcini, blue-green anise mushrooms (that smell like licorice), granny caps, bellybutton hedgehogs, chicken of the woods, angel wings and winter chanterelles! It's never been a better year to book a mushroom foraging 101 class with us! Still some tickets left for this weekend through November.

Fly Agaric or Amanita muscaria is a fantastic looking, common Pacific Northwest mushroom that you may see fruiting around now (pic). It's more of a feast for the eyes as it's a known poisonous mushroom, feel free to touch them, just don't pop one in your mouth!
