Angel Wings
These delicate fungi are a smaller version of the Summer Oyster and will appear on stumps and fallen branches of hardwood throughout the Summer and early Autumn.
They have a mild sweet taste and are best consumed when they are white. Angel Wings don't last long as they will begin to fade brown within a day or two. Still, they are a fine compliment to any meal. Sautee
very lightly for only a few minutes.
We will be out on the Avon Trail looking for these as well as Summer Oysters, Two Coloured Boletes, Gem Studded Puffballs, Wild Watercress, Wood Sorrel and more.
Start time: 10:00 am. Duration: approx. 3hrs
Where: Stratford area.

The Hedgehog Mushroom/
Hydnum repandum or "Sweet Tooth" is one of the easiest mushrooms to identify.
The cap is creamy white with tiny spines hanging down the underside. These popular mushrooms are quite tasty but need to be harvested
when young before the worms get to them. The Barrie forest presents a multitude of edible mushrooms including the Lobster,
the Summer Oyster and an array of Boletes. So grab your baskets and mesh bags and join us on the trails. We are mid-Summer and Mother
Nature has a wealth of wild edibles on the agenda.

Where: Barrie area.
Cost: $40.00/person
August 10th

Turkey Tails
Rated as one of the top five medicinal mushrooms in the world, Turkey Tails are quite
abundant throughout Ontario and have well-documented uses for supporting immune function, reducing inflammation,
improving gut health, and enhancing the efficacy of cancer treatment. They can be found on decaying hardwoods, appearing in clusters.
Preparation: 1 cup of mushrooms to 2 cups of water. Bring to a boil and let seep for 10 minutes. The tea is quite mild tasting so try
adding a bit of honey to improve the taste.
We will also be searching for Summer Oysters along with a variety of Boletes
and Russulas.
Start time: 10:00 am
Where: Cambridge area.
Cost: $40.00/person
August 11th
15 tickets available.
Reishi Mushrooms
Like the Turkey Tails, the Reishi Mushroom is also considered as one of the top medicinal
mushrooms in the world. Boosts the immune system, increases white blood cells and is currently being studied for its possible cancer fighting
properties. When young they have a deep yellow colour but as they age they turn a radiant red or burgundy. They are found on well decayed hardwoods
and should only be harvested when mature. Along with these gems we will be searching for other mushrooms such as Summer Oysters, Platterfuls, Beech
Rooters and, of course Turkey Tails.
Start time: 10:00 am
Where: Bright, ON area.
Cost: $40.00/person

Chicken of the Woods
Among our series of weekday events we feature the highly sought after Polypore, Chicken
of the Woods. This is a very large and stunning mushroom with layers of red and yellow. Colours that make it stand out easily inside dense
hardwood forests. This mushroom's texture resembles cooked boneless chicken breast. Hence the name. Among the other mushrooms we will be searching
for are Summer Oysters, Turkey Tail, Fawn Mushrooms and others. This would be a great addition to anyone's Summer Holiday.
Start time: 10:00 am
Where: Stratford area.
Cost: $40.00/person
August 18th

The Ghost Pipe
At first glance it appears to be an odd plant of some kind. It is!
An edible plant that has a similiar taste to asparagus. They can be found in hardwood forests in clusters. Sauteed gently, the Ghost
Pipe can be yet another delicious wild edible you can add to your menu.
Along with these, we will be searching the forest floors for
Giant Puffballs, Angel Wings, an assortment of Boletes as well as tantalizing plants including Wild Ginger, Wild Cicely and Wild Lemon Balm.
If you want wild, we've got it.
Start time: 10:00 am

Giant Puffball Hunt at Barrie
15 tickets available.
One of the great celebrities of late Summer, the Giant Puffball demands attention if only for its size. So far our record find was an 18 pounder back in
2016. I don't think we can do much better than that. Outside of its dimensions the Puffball is also rated as "choice"
for taste the world round. They will be easy targets in the forest so why not
join us as we search for these along with Summer Oysters, Angel Wings, assorted Boletes, Wild Oregano and Wild Mint.

Chicken of the Woods
Among our series of weekday events we feature the highly sought after Polypore, Chicken
of the Woods. This is a very large and stunning mushroom with layers of red and yellow. Colours that make it stand out easily inside dense
hardwood forests. This mushroom's texture resembles cooked boneless chicken breast. Hence the name. Among the other mushrooms we will be searching
for are Summer Oysters, Turkey Tail, Fawn Mushrooms and others. This would be a great addition to anyone's Summer Holiday.

The Ghost Pipe
At first glance it appears to be an odd plant of some kind. It is!
An edible plant that has a similiar taste to asparagus. They can be found in hardwood forests in clusters. Sauteed gently, the Ghost
Pipe can be yet another delicious wild edible you can add to your menu.
Along with these, we will be searching the forest floors for
Giant Puffballs, Angel Wings, an assortment of Boletes as well as tantalizing plants including Wild Ginger, Wild Cicely and Wild Lemon Balm.
If you want wild, we've got it.

Giant Puffball Hunt at Barrie
15 tickets available.
One of the great celebrities of late Summer, the Giant Puffball demands attention if only for its size. So far our record find was an 18 pounder back in
2016. I don't think we can do much better than that. Outside of its dimensions the Puffball is also rated as "choice"
for taste the world round. They will be easy targets in the forest so why not
join us as we search for these along with Summer Oysters, Angel Wings, assorted Boletes, Wild Oregano and Wild Mint.
