A Visual Guide For Harvesting Mushrooms.

                                                I often see people with a variety of Field Guides
                                  for Mushroom Hunting. There are alot of wonderful books on the market,
                                  however, I feel that mine offers practical information with wonderful
                                    pictures and advice. The photographs are of actual mushrooms harvested
                                                           in Douglas County, Oregon.
                                           Local reviews of my book have been so positively, wonderful.
                                                "An actual book of our mushrooms", It's great!".

Spring Fiddle Head Fern

                                          Last night my husband bought some Fiddle head fern.
                                          
 Spring brings forth the bounty from our forests. There are many wonderful food products to search for, right now. We are still getting Black Trumpets, Yellow Feet, Hedge Hogs and are transitioning into the Spring products such as, Fiddle Head Fern, Stinging Nettle, Morels & Minor's Lettuce.
