When the rain has returned to the Cascades, we are drawn again to her higher reaches ... name that waterfall: #oregonadventures #oregonfungi #cascadia #oregonwaterfall

Love it when someone finds a new favorite wild edible mushroom! Yesterday I got to introduce Valerie to the Admirable Bolete - Aureoboletus mirabilis These have an excellent nutty flavor, that finishes with a natural lemon-blueberry bite! #oregonfungi #polyporedexistance #wildmushrooms #mycorrhizae #

Pitholithus arhizus complex - Dead Man’s Foot Well known to mushroom dye makers, and known to orchardists and habitat restoration workers/designers, this mushroom is a broad partnering ectomycorrhiza. Pitholithus translates to Pea Stone, describing the pea-like peridioles that make up the bulk of it’s interior. They slowly mature into masses of tiny spores that drift off as chocolate powder clouds in the wind. Their tendency to form mycorrhizal associations with a huge diversity of woody plants has put them in the center of focus with other Sclerodermataceae for habitat restoration, especially in drought prone areas. Younger specimen like these are also excellent for dyeing wool! #pitholithus #oregonfungi #deadmansfoot #dogturdfungi #yep

... more Blue Chanterelle from yesterday’s hike ... Polyozellus multiplex #blue #chanterelle #oregonfungi #uncommonfinds #cascadia

Blue Chanterelle - Polyozellus multiplex One of the most aw-inspiring Chanterelle-like mushrooms, though they really aren’t so closely related, they do have a similar veiny gill. These were growing in a classic clump near Western Hemlock in the South Cascades yesterday... #oregonfungi #cascadia #fungiforthepeople #chanterelle

Cannabis x Stropharia rugoso-annulata That special season has begun ... September pressure shifts in the Cascades #cannabis #mycology #foodandmedicine #oregonfungi

Wanting to acknowledge how healing and heartened my experience was two weeks ago @newmoonmycologysummit More than any myco-related event I’ve been to, the efforts made and space held for inclusiveness, respect, and community building were strongly felt. The reconnection with old myco-loves, and the meeting of New was enough to make the trip week worth any effort 🌚🌚THANK YOU ALL 🌝 I find it best for me to not take/share pictures of some of these potent gatherings, so please accept this whimsical water-color map by @vanillattry as a peek into the magic Thank you to all the organizers and everyone who stepped into a role, soooo worth your efforts as far as our experience #newmoonmycologysummit #nyfungi #polyporedexistance #waterislife #aintnotimetohate

Daedaleopsis confragosa Thin Wall Blushing Maze Polypore A selection from one of my favorite groups of mushrooms, the maze Polypore, and also first named decently by one of my favorite freaky fungologists, Christiaan Hendrik Persoon These closely resemble a number of similar looking fungi with variously elongated pore openings, ranging amongst the Daedalea , Porodaedalea , Lenzites , Cerrenea etc. The base word Daedalea is derived from the Ancient Greek δαιδαλεος ("curiously wrought"), and also closely resembles the Ancient Greek δαιδάλλω "to work artfully". It was applied in the name Daedalus, the inventor/artist in Greek mythology, who made the Labyrinth on Crete in which the Minotaur was kept, as described by Homer. #mazepolypores #polyporedexistence #nyfungi #newmoonmycologysummit
