Mushroom table.
by Brady Raymond
The weather has been cool the last week and subsequently, my mind still thinks about mushrooms. Around the house, I’ve noticed a couple things fruiting, some Coprinellus in the garden woodchips and some Agaricus in the duff off the side of the road. These are farmland mushrooms though, domesticated in a sense, I wanted things more wild, mycorrhizal and Ascomycete in nature. I still want Morels.
Once again, the family and I set out to try our luck on another weekend mushrooming romp. What would we find and would we even find anything? We figured we’d snag a couple Morels, enough to hopefully make it worth firing up the dehydrator and adding a little more to our reserves.

I kept wondering if each Morel was my last for the season.
