Honestly, I'm feeling a bit bummed out this week. It's normal, I get it, the sky is grey and my inner "Eeyore" comes out. Whenever it gets dark and rainy like this in the city, I just force myself outside into the forest. It's magical and quiet out there and the mushrooms are waiting. My foraging friends are starting to find porcini, bearshead and chicken of the woods, some of the tastiest BC mushrooms. If you want to learn how to drive away the
rainy blues and go on a mushroom treasure hunt with us, join us on one of our fall mushroom trips. The first two dates are already sold out, so grab them while you still can below...
