The first basket is made from tiny honey suckle vines and three different grasses (Chinese silver grass, Johnson grass, and a grass I collected from some sand dunes after theyd been weed whacked) and the second basket is cattail leaves, common rush, and cordage I made from yucca!! This is my new obsession… so much fun!!

Best matsutake haul I’ve ever had! Plus a good chanterelle haul (and one admirable bolete!)

Made this recipe with them too to preserve some: https://vegans-have-superpowers.blogspot.com/2013/11/japanese-pickled-mushrooms.html?m=1

Found two on Sunday and two on Monday, they totaled around 20 pounds together. Managed to total a bit over 10 pounds after processing and making a pie with a pound. Might have some centipede nightmares for a bit. Once those pass I’ll be trying some new mushroom recipes.

i found a ton of this growing high up on a tree (midwest usa) and grabbed it because i'm pretty sure it's chicken of the woods, but i want to be sure before i eat any. what do we think?

Repost because I forgot to add the pictures 🤦‍♂️

My mom found this huge mushroom while out on a walk, we've never seen one before, but she's pretty sure it's a pheasant back. We just want a second opinion before we do anything with it (suggestions on what to do with it also welcome!)

Edit: we're in Kentucky!

Thanks in advance!

NW South Carolina USA. Never found one before it went brown, so I can’t be sure even though it seems obvious that it’s gotta be a puffball, right? Is this one still ok? That said, what are some recommendations for preparation, and more importantly storage since I likely won’t be able to fool with it for about 24 hours.

I found a persimmon spot and last year tried getting a few after first frost. They were too mushy and most broke the skin getting leaf litter all in them when dropping. Tried them and they were ok. This year I have been checking on them once a week or so and watching them ripen. I have been finding one or two squishy ones on the ground. Tasted one and it was almost ripe, but still had a bit of astringency on the backend. I have heard you can harvest them slightly unripe and they will ripen by themselves? When is the best time to look for them? What is the best method to harvest? Piedmont NC. The location has maybe 20 total persimmons. Just want to try at least one at peak ripeness.

Just verify, these are edible chestnuts? Found in NRW, Germany. On the sidewalk of trees linging a large shopping center. Every year, someone forages some, but most are just left stepped on and driven on. Another family began foraging on the sidewalk when we looked back after we left.

The apples were gifted so I don't think it counts as foraging.

Noticed interesting shroomies growing all over logs and stumps here in the woods, southeast Pa. Wondering what to forage and what to leave for the gnomes..

What's this? Did I just found a porcini on my walk today? Anyone know?

Hello! Found this walnut? tree on a trip to a park in Helsinki, Finland today. I’m new to nut ID since there aren’t many grown here. Would like to know if this is worth picking for eating? Heard that some walnuts can be astringent and unpleasant to eat. Any help appreciated! Sorry for the poor quality pictures.

Somewhere in Connecticut along the train tracks.
