Hi! I've got mushroom education classes and hikes coming up in the next 2 weeks! I'd love to see you! Some of the classes are full already, but I know there is still room in the Hoyt Arboretum programs, so check them out!

Hi! I'm giving two educational programs this Sunday hosted by Hoyt Arboretum in Portland. One is learning the common fall mushrooms of the PNW, the other is general mushroom ID skills. Both include a walk in the Arboretum afterward to look for mushrooms together. The cost for each program is $40. I would love to see you there if you are interested!

Went chanterelle hunting for my friend's birthday this year. Trying to make sure to schedule quality time with loved ones and not just mushroom "work" during mushroom season. An important lesson I am slowly getting better at (even if that quality time needs to be scheduled 3-4 months in advance 😁)

Honey mushrooms, Armillaria
Edible for most people, cook well
White spores
Ring on stipe
Fibrils on cap top
Clustered to single to gregarious on wood or appearing terrestrial (but ultimately attached to tree roots)
