Thinking about last week’s hike
@Annie I've always envied those who are mushroom-literate, and their shared knowledge and lore. Especially the secret places, known to only the few.
A friend in Newfoundland is one of the 2-3 people who knows about a hidden patch of Matsutake mushrooms somewhere on the Conception Bay coast in Newfoundland. The mushrooms, once harvested, are enjoyed by family and friends, but the foraging has a special forces level of secrecy.
@chrisfoley that’s amazing!
I’d love to learn but this is one of those areas I definitely don’t feel confident learning from books or secondary sources. I need a real person with expertise to be right there with me before I’d trust my knowledge.
@Annie He's wrong. Edible means safe to eat. Replace "edible" with "eatable" and the logic of the statement holds.
