The Black Velvet Bolete
The Black Velvet is one of the earliest Boletes to appear, continuing to show itself through most of the Summer. Rated as "choice" by many North American
chefs, it can be found primarily under mature oaks. Which is why we have chosen Sudden Tract outside of Cambridge for our trek. Sudden Tract is made up of diverse forests including one huge section of hardwoods. We might
add the trails are some of the most beautiful in southwestern Ontario, home to other fungi such as Oysters, Corals,
Honey Mushrooms and more.

Canada, appearing from early Summer to mid-Autumn. Wood Sorrel is an incredible thirst quencher and is refreshing to eat. Both leaves and
flowers are edible with a taste of mild lemon. This plant is wonderful in soups and stews. Makes a wonderful tea both hot and cold.
We'll be harvesting this wild edible along with Wild Ginger, Burdock Root and mushrooms such as Summer Oysters, Platterful, Beech Rooter
and more.

rival the taste of family member, The Chanterelle. Needless to say, we will be searching for both along with Summer Oysters, a variety of Boletes and Corals.
There's a reason Travel and Leisure Magazine listed

Old Man of the Woods
If you are out amongst the hardwoods and come across an unkempt, wooly species of mushrooms fear not.
It is Old Man of the Woods. Its colouring is quite interesting, a combination of black, white and grey. When sliced it bruises from red
to pink. Like many mushrooms they are mycorrhizal, meaning they have a working relationship with certain trees. Both hardwoods and conifers. "The
Woods are very dark and deep . . . and so are some of the mushrooms we seek."
Join us on our treks and you will see some of the oddities Mother Nature has to offer.

The Lobster Mushroom
To quote Forager Chef,
"These mushrooms are created when the parasitic
fungus Hypomyces lactifluorum infects species of Russula or Lactarius mushrooms, causing them to change shape, color,
and flavor. Long enjoyed in Mexico where they're sold at local farmers markets, in the Michoacan
peninsula they're known as "Tromba de Puerco" or pork horn. The name refers to the shape of vase-like mushrooms,
and the fact that they're cooked as a meat substitute. They're usually boiled, then fried with tomatoes and onion,
eaten with tortillas.
There's a large forest in Barrie, home to a variety of fungi. A truly rewarding foraging adventure.

Chanterelle Hunt
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.
As an added bonus we are giving out Golden Chanterelles shipped from British Columbia so you will be guaranteed to go home happy.
Along with Chanterelles we will be searching for Summer Oyster Mushrooms,
Black Trumpets, Chicken of the Woods, an assortement of Boletes and more.
Read Karon Liu's recent article in the Toronto Star to get a taste of what Puck's Plenty is all about.

Painted Suillius Bolete
Another long standing Bolete, the Painted Suillius can be found under White Pine from
June through November and is rated quite high on the edibility charts. It has a red-ocre cap with yellow pores and a yellow stalk. Its
spore print is olive brown.
Along with the Suillius we will also be searching for other mushrooms such as Summer Oysters, Turkey Tails, Angel Wings,
Chicken of the Woods and more. Among the plants: Wood Sorrel, Wild Ginger and Wild Leek Bulbs.

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.

As an added bonus we are giving out Golden Chanterelles shipped from British Columbia so you will be guaranteed to go home happy.
Along with Chanterelles we will be searching for Summer Oyster Mushrooms,
Black Trumpets, Chicken of the Woods, an assortement of Boletes and more.

Another long standing Bolete, the Painted Suillius can be found under White Pine from
June through November and is rated quite high on the edibility charts. It has a red-ocre cap with yellow pores and a yellow stalk. Its
spore print is olive brown.
Along with the Suillius we will also be searching for other mushrooms such as Summer Oysters, Turkey Tails, Angel Wings,
Chicken of the Woods and more. Among the plants: Wood Sorrel, Wild Ginger and Wild Leek Bulbs.

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.

The Black Velvet Bolete
The Black Velvet is one of the earliest Boletes to appear, continuing to show itself through most of the Summer. Rated as "choice" by many North American
chefs, it can be found primarily under mature oaks. Which is why we have chosen Sudden Tract outside of Cambridge for our trek. Sudden Tract is made up of diverse forests including one huge section of hardwoods. We might
add the trails are some of the most beautiful in southwestern Ontario, home to other fungi such as Oysters, Corals,
Honey Mushrooms and more.
Our horizons are expanding and will include Sudden Tract several times this season. (By the way, dogs are more than welcome.)

Wood Sorrel and more
Wood Sorrel is a wild edible plant that resembles clover and shamrock. It thrives across
Canada, appearing from early Summer to mid-Autumn. Wood Sorrel is an incredible thirst quencher and is refreshing to eat. Both leaves and
flowers are edible with a taste of mild lemon. This plant is wonderful in soups and stews. Makes a wonderful tea both hot and cold.
We'll be harvesting this wild edible along with Wild Ginger, Burdock Root and mushrooms such as Summer Oysters, Platterful, Beech Rooter
and more.

at a meeting point just outside of the village of Bright where we search for assorted wild herbs. Then move on to a 100 acre parcel of Crown Land
for the Summer flush of mushrooms. The added reward is the beauty of Nature along with the calming effect of walking through forests. You never know

rival the taste of family member, The Chanterelle. Needless to say, we will be searching for both along with Summer Oysters, a variety of Boletes and Corals.

Old Man of the Woods
If you are out amongst the hardwoods and come across an unkempt, wooly species of mushrooms fear not.
It is Old Man of the Woods. Its colouring is quite interesting, a combination of black, white and grey. When sliced it bruises from red
to pink. Like many mushrooms they are mycorrhizal, meaning they have a working relationship with certain trees. Both hardwoods and conifers. "The
Woods are very dark and deep . . . and so are some of the mushrooms we seek."
Join us on our treks and you will see some of the oddities Mother Nature has to offer.

The Lobster Mushroom
To quote Forager Chef,
"These mushrooms are created when the parasitic
fungus Hypomyces lactifluorum infects species of Russula or Lactarius mushrooms, causing them to change shape, color,
and flavor. Long enjoyed in Mexico where they're sold at local farmers markets, in the Michoacan
peninsula they're known as "Tromba de Puerco" or pork horn. The name refers to the shape of vase-like mushrooms,
and the fact that they're cooked as a meat substitute. They're usually boiled, then fried with tomatoes and onion,
eaten with tortillas.
There's a large forest in Barrie, home to a variety of fungi. A truly rewarding foraging adventure.

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.
Start time: 10:00 am
Where: Bright, Ontario area.
Cost: $40.00/person

Chanterelle Hunt
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.
As an added bonus we are giving out Golden Chanterelles shipped from British Columbia so you will be guaranteed to go home happy.
Along with Chanterelles we will be searching for Summer Oyster Mushrooms,
Black Trumpets, Chicken of the Woods, an assortement of Boletes and more.
