2015 Alaska Foray Report (by )
Please forgive my musings. Folks have asked how was it? "It" being the long distance foray up in the Kenai Pennisula in Alaska. Well, this is my 3rd trip, so that pretty much sums it up. It is alway fanastic and I keep swearing this the LAST one, but 2016 is just around the corner. Oh yeah as long as Bill White offers our club this "Deal of a Lifetime", how can I say NO.

Salt Point State Park closed to mushroom gathering
Due to the ongoing drought, the lead biologist at Salt Point State Park has determined that tromping through the woods could be permanently destructive. Therefore, mushroom collecting has been suspended until the rains come.

Fall is coming up — shall we celebrate a new, season, and may it please be a wet one? Chef Bob Wynn, Forager-in-Chief Sue Labiste and the FFSC Culinary committee are cooking up a truly wild event this year featuring foraged foods. Wild mushrooms will be complemented by an array of indigenous foods, thanks to our intrepid foragers, preppers and planners Bob, Sue, Fred Molnar, Cat Gunderson, Bill and Annie Lang, Margaret Carpenter and Debbie Johnson. Be sure to sign up early, as these dinners usually sell out. The menu can be found below.
Mushroom Tour - Mexico 2015 (Non FFSC)
Allan Rockerfeller will be leading a mushroom tour in Queretaro, Mexico Aug 6 - 9, 2015. Queretaro is a really nice place with diverse mushroom habitats, and this tour is unique in that I am not getting paid - all profits go towards saving the forests in the Sierra Gorda Ecological Reserve.
This is not an FFSC event...
