End of the season?
Perhaps it's time to throw in the towel for this year. I spent another couple of
hours getting nothing but exercise. My total for the year "10"
morels. I never did find any under the tulip poplar trees. Everything that I found
was under elm. I did find a spot where an elm had gotten the worst of a wind fall
by a cherry tree. The elm, though green, is bent and broken with the bark coming
off. I'm already looking forward to next year J
.
The morels that I had picked went very well with tonight's supper of pork steaks
on the grill, fresh asparagus from the garden and German potato salad. Speaking
of asparagus. The asparagus in my garden, like the morels, is behind the curve in
that only now are we picking enough that we can pass some on to friends and family.
Remember that Tuesday is our meeting at Beechwood Farms and that the topic
this month is cultivating oyster mushrooms. By the way, my oyster kit from last
year finally gave up the ghost when I moved it outside so that my dog wouldn't be
exposed to the oyster mushroom spores.
When I go into the woods I take my camera with me. I had intended to publish these
with my blogs. There are not many mushroom photos here because well there weren't
many mushrooms.
