Velvet Foot Mushrooms
These mushrooms begin to appear in late September and last right through the Winter until March. Velvet Foot (also known as Velvet Shank)
evolve from a network of veins beneath the bark of dead hardwoods. They grow in clusters, have sticky caps and very active white spores. That stickiness dissipates in the cooking along with the
spores. Velvet Foot make a wonderful addition to risotto and pasta dishes. One great advantage to the Velvet Foot is that they are so easy to dry and store. Simply leave them on the counter for a day or two
until they turn black and store them in a Mason Jar. When you are ready to use them again just reconstitute
them in water and Voila!.

Honey Mushrooms
Honey Mushrooms are one of the most favourite fungi of Eastern Europe. Also found throughout North America they appear in great clusters

until the end of September.<

SOLD OUT.
Imagine you are a novice mushroom hunter and come across a mushroom that is strikingly blue. The first thought that comes to mind: "Keep walking." Ah,
but that would be a mistake. For these radiant fungi are rated "choice" by National Audubon's Field Guide to Mushrooms. They are meaty, large and a plus to any meal. Thankfully we can find them right here
in Stratford, many a time growing alongside such wonderful edibles as the Lactarius Deliciosus and, later in the Autumn, the Lepista Irina and the Fawn mushroom.
After our local search we will move on to
trails only fiftenn minutes from town to collect Honey and Oyster Mushrooms along with wild edible plants and herbs.
Puck's Plenty Tours been rated as one of the top foraging adventures
in the world by Marriott International
