Chanterelle Mushrooms in Summer, and Wild Mushroom foraging

[@jonathanolver84]

Hi Aaron my soon to be 3yr old son loves your channel so we are dedicating a full birthday entitled Mushroom wonderland. Thank you so much for your great content.

[@billy_og]

I like that Aaron keeps hammering the identification and strategies on identification... even the boring ole russulas... a lot of value in that format, repetition, repetition, repetition. As the channel grows, i hope this will remain a staple part of the content offered.

[@mushroomwonderland1]

Thank you, sometimes I worry if I'm being too repetitive but that's how I learned is through repetition. And there's many many new people with every video

[@Qwrirq]

Russolas are not always boring. Many are decently tasting with a good texture, that is however admittedly not too exciting. There are however some quite interesting russulas, such as russula xerampelina which have a seafoody odor and can be used to infuse food with a seafood taste, either too make a vegetarian seafood dish or to enhance a seafood dish.

​@@mushroomwonderland1I've picked up a lot about mushrooms from you because of the repetition of you identifying them. Prior to your videos a few months ago I couldn't identify a single mushroom.

[@bkteske]

@@mushroomwonderland1 I need the repetition and love your videos, thank you!

[@mturallo]

I love the 🤘METAL🤘 blurb at 11:40 before you smash a mushroom against a tree.

Found COW today in NW Pennsylvania.Happy foraging!

[@RdCrestdBreegull]

11:55 Amanita gemmata doesn’t occur in North America, but in Washington you do have a few morphologically similar species such as Amanita pseudobreckonii, Amanita aprica, and another one that doesn’t have a name yet but has a couple cryptonom. temp. names like “Amanita gemmata-CA01”.

[@mushroomwonderland1]

That's true! I should probably suggest to confer with, or emphasize group, a lot of the DNA sequences of these don't match anything at all and probably deserve a new name. Aprica is very outstanding with its morphological features, integrated universal veil, deep apricot color, makes it pretty easy to differentiate from these more opaque yellow tan ones. Thank you for clarifying though!

19:51 Beautiful Boy! Put down our families black lab last June. First loss for my children, that was tough. Neil deGrasse Tyson said something that stuck with me about dogs living short periods and I swear I instantly relived every moment I yelled at her, never mean of course, but makes you ponder and what not.

Gotta love the chanterelles 🤤🤤

[@Nemrai]

I'm in Norway, and saw a couple tiny chanterelles about a week ago(I left them there). Since then it's been more rain after that, I'm going to head out tomorrow and see if I find some mushroom for dinner. Looking forwards to that, the early chanterelles are the best.

[@Waltbox]

I'm in Sweden, going for a look on Saturday, hopefully there will be some nuggets after this weeks rain! Did you find anything?

[@RichardPoogerman]

[@fromdahbush]

Dyers polypore at different stages of growth are used to make pigments and dyes ranging from yellow, orange, brown, and black. I just did a taste test of a Russula on my last forage video as well. Super spicy. I talked about when I taste tested Amanita phalloides aka death cap in that video. In the northeast we have ghost pipe, monotropa uniflora, that's white and almost translucent. They're used to make tincture that helps with headaches and joint pain. I gave a friend of mine, who had stage 3 prostate cancer, turkey tail and Chaga to mix with his coffee every morning. 3 months later after using turkey tail and Chaga every morning. He had 98% remission, and didn't even use chemo treatment! Mushrooms literally save lives! Mush love! 🍄🧙‍♂️✌️

[@GingerJackson-c6d]

Monotropa is definitely a plant. It's in the Ericaceae, same as blueberries. It might help to think of them as blueberry's goth cousin. 😉

[@mushroomwonderland1]

I love that, thank you.

[@angiejones3714]

Yay a fellow 🤓 nerd. I love you for telling us this I am lifelong learner. And the outside is the best thing to learn about. ❤

[@aerynventress7702]

Yes! Believe it or not, those spooky little plants are related to blueberries, salal, and heather.

[@ronveach5117]

Gunner is becoming a lot like me LOL. Sweet dog!

[@timimoore4631]

I'm right down the road from you! Love your videos and so relevant to me!

[@QcDesj03]

never stop repeting yourself haha , im in the woods sometimes and i name the mushrooms with youre voice subconsciously lol

[@charriesel6352]

Very informative 😊

[@martinmix7464]

Found a huge patch of golden (or maybe smooth) chanterelles in my mother-in-law's back yard. I got a couple pounds and will go back for another picking in a couple days. I picked maybe two-thirds of what was there. I'm in Georgia north of Atlanta.

[@lovethemack]

nice to see the chant pins, I should see some here (Mission BC Canada) by the end of July- YAY. Thanks for the great content

[@MargootMC]

I found some white oyster mushrooms on my lawn the other day. They were delicious!

[@nickwhite2569]

Can you specify where at on your lawn? Oyster mushrooms only grow on decaying wood. If it was growing from your soil, it was probably something else. Unless there was buried wood

[@MargootMC]

@@nickwhite2569 they looked almost identical to oyster mushrooms and I found them growing straight out of the moss. They were right near a tree but definitely growing from the ground.

[@nickwhite2569]

@MargootMC they might have been growing from a buried piece of wood or maybe the roots? Mushrooms can do awesome things. Either way you seem to be doing okay and ate some delicious mushrooms :)

[@MargootMC]

@@nickwhite2569 yea! They are pretty awesome.

[@DoubleADay]

Where I find russula's, I find chanterelles

[@carissacuesta6949]

Truly love your videos and am going to absolutely support your channel 💜

[@mushroomwonderland1]

Thanks so much❤️🍄❤️🍄

[@aerynventress7702]

I loooove the closeups of the M. hypopitys. I see M. uniflora near my house this time of year but I rarely get to see M. hypopitys. Mycoheterotrophs are just super cool to me.

[@AlaskaLionsMane]

In Alaska, loving it right now! Everything is blooming. I think I found some Panaeolus cinctulus here too!

[@stevenlandseadel2494]

Central Florida here. I am still in drought my area is usually very rainy where I live but we are at almost 18 month below-average and drought conditions this past week at 98 degrees is not healthy either

[@AlaskaLionsMane]

7:28 Wonder if they have any benifits like Chaga (Inonotus obliquus)?

[@DJKurdziolek]

Oh man, I’m sorry you tasted that! Lol Last time I did that it lasted for 2 days! 😖

[@stevebonnus2458]

Great as always. Watching you for awhile. QUESTION: did you ever live in arcata, Cali years ago ( 2001 era)??? Just wondering cuz you look & have same name as a long lost friend of mine. Thanks buddy!! Peace out & great work as always!!! ♥️🍄🧫🦓

[@mushroomwonderland1]

No never have! Sorry. Thanks for watching though. Mush love!

[@BubuH-cq6km]

😎 👍🏼

[@your_eulogy2688]

Only found one little fella when I went out to one of my spots last week. I was hoping for at least a meal of chanterelles after this vid

[@Qwrirq]

Does the russola tasting trick work with all russolas you know of? I know it works for all russolas in northen Europe, and I believe also in central Europe; I am however careful with identifying mushrooms as edible when I find them far from my native climate and area.

[@mushroomwonderland1]

Yes, russula is a big genus, but the test works across the board as far as I know. No Russula are deadly, and it's ok to taste test any mushroom, even a death cap.

[@Qwrirq]

@@mushroomwonderland1 ok, thanks!

*** Turkey tail was in addition to traditional cancer treatment ***

[@ronblascoe3661]

Yes, it is traditional. But any claims that its an effective treatment for cancer are completly bogus. I tried to post a response to this site but it never showed up.

[@bigmuskie10]

@ronblascoe3661 I completely disagree. There are studies by credible institutions that say otherwise. Trametes versicolor does, in fact have medicinal properties that can help in cancer treatments. Could it stand alone as a cancer treatment? Who knows, but it has been proven to help in treatment

[@ronblascoe3661]

Glad to hear that. Could you please give me some citations that support the idea that tt cures cancer.

[@martinmix7464]

I know Stamet's mom was part of a trial that added turkey tail to her cancer treatment and the study found it statistically significant from an effectiveness standpoint.

Just like the purplish blueish Indian pipe that make pain tincture
