It can be divided into portions and kept frozen for later.

Chanterelle Hunt, Cambridge, On

2 tickets available.

One of the most sought after mushrooms in the world, the Chanterelle's taste is rated as one of the best. And the best way to prepare them? Sauteed in butter and garlc (of course) but because they contain lots of moisture it is recommended you pan fry them a minute or two before adding the butter. That way you gain the perfect texture.

Along with these gems we will also be searching for Black Trumpets, a variety of Bolete Mushrooms, Summer Oysters and more.

As an added bonus all participants will be taking home assorted samples of mushrooms from Fresh and Tasty Mushrooms.

July's Jewels

Chanterelles, Black Trumpets, Hedgehogs and an assortment of Boletes. These are the mushrooms of Summer that decorate the forest floor. All these fungi are special in their own way and very easily identified from the not so edible variety. Moreover, they are among the most sought after mushrooms of Summer. Mother Nature has shown the way. All we have to do is follow her.

As an added bonus all participants will be taking home assorted samples of mushrooms from Fresh and Tasty Mushrooms.

The King Bolete, aka Wild Porcini

At this time of year we are on the cusp where mushroom hunting turns exciting. One of the more highly prized fungi in the Bolete family is The King or Wild Porcini. The cap has the richest of flavours while the stalk holds many more surprises especially when cooked into soups and stews. Last year, on a newly discovered trail, we found scores of them nestled in the lush green ground cover of the forest. You won't want to miss hunting for these "choice" edibles that will drive your culinary senses wild. Along with the King Bolete we will search for oyster mushrooms, gem studded mushrooms, ash boletes and more.
