Chanterelle Season Is Here!
We are so blessed to live where there are chanterelle mushrooms popping up EVERYWHERE!!! They are in our back yard all over! They are in our friends wood all over! And we are foraging and harvesting more than we ever dreamed!
The rain we have experienced here in Georgia has been really great for mushrooms! They are everywhere in this picture above if you look closely! look for the orange color in the understory. The chanterelles are all around!
This year we are finding more than we can eat so we are dehydrating and sharing with friends! We usually barely get enough from our backyard for one meal, not this year! After the harvest we got yesterday we shared a bunch and still had well over 5 pounds left for us!
We found a spot yesterday where they were as big as my hand! I have never seen one this big in person! Some of the biggest ones had to be left behind because they had gotten pretty buggy. We always leave behind a lot to propagate for future generations. That is very important when foraging.
I have a great video with a ton of information for those that want to learn more! I explain how we care for them and what we do to preserve them and even how to cook! Check it out! You might really enjoy my YouTube Channel!
