Turkey Tail Mushrooms ~ Hunt, Identify, Dehydrate, Making Tea !!! ~ Minnesota Mushrooms

[@gregorydardasm.d.3754]

I love that you are not just drinking the tea, but additionally savoring the harvesting experience. What a wonderful way to honor that experience as well as the time with your son. I'm not a religious person, however to the extent I can identify with the term, I would consider the entire process to be sacred. Thanks for the great video! I love the idea of brewing the tea with a French Press! I've done it in a regular pot and then had to add the extra step of filtering it. Even easier!

[@levioneill9677]

You can see this kid really wants to immitate his dad and foraging is such a wholesome activity. Thanks for the info btw.

My buddy has cancer and I'm determined to try to make him well or at least give him a little bit longer.

[@jennifermullins277]

My hubby has spots on his lungs. I aim to help heal him as well. Good luck to you, my friend!

[@GoodVibesOnly1914]

no grains of any kind, jeff bowles-vit d book, the iodine crisis book, aip diet-keto with wild game and wild game or grass fed organ meats, intermittent fast for at least 12 hr a day, no plastics touch any food, only reverse osmosis spring or well water. And probably add in some turkytail and other wild mushrooms! Dr ken berry and dr gundry. If you dive into the above topics as well as slowly add in exercise and some sauana therapy,, i think it would cure most cancers.

[@gloriakelley7383]

Prayers for your buddy!

[@Sorayaraqs]

I hope everything has improved for him. ❤️

[@LaydeeLia]

I hope your friend is ok now.

These mushrooms are great for infections and teeth. They help break down biofilm on teeth. Great at helping you overcome sinus, ear and gum infections. All edible and medicinal mushrooms are good for immunity but these ones are very powerful immune modulators if u drink it daily.

[@raykarenmeuchel5086]

That cup you have is may very favorite, Fire King. It is semi transparent , so you are able to see how strong your coffee or tea is

[@gloriakelley7383]

Thank you! I’m new at turkey tail tea. I feel more confident watching this video. AND! I also collect jadite!! Love it!

[@rhondawentzell6959]

Excellent video Direct approach and no long lead up! Thank you!!

[@WatchwomanOnTheWall-zk9po]

What a great helper you have there, and you have educated him so well.

[@katrinadavis9705]

Thank you for this post. I just bought a big bag of these mushrooms from an herbal farm. With your video I now know how to prepare the tea. Your video was very helpful. Thank you again.

[@jerseyinthephilippines1283]

Thanks I have a French press and homegrown Turkey tail mushrooms.I appreciate your video. Cheers!

[@liliancorley5207]

Great job , your son is the best, great knowledge to pass on to the new generation

[@sandiv6145]

What a wonderful teaching aid you are using to educate your son (who is a reall cutie and very articulate, BTW!)

[@alla4821]

100👍🏻 for teaching your son

[@HawthorneHillNaturePreserve]

Excellent content! I especially liked how you shared the knowledge and experience with your son who will take that with him through his adulthood and teach others and his own kids someday, much like the Native Americans did. Learning through experience, tradition and spoken word. I am amazed at what I remember from walking the woods with my dad and foraging for mushrooms. It’s in my blood.

[@sharonallen6921]

Thank you for this video. I have not seen before how the drying was done - the temperature and hours needed. That is just what I was looking for.

[@tannersandeify]

Dude your awesome, I love how you bring your son with you!!!

[@jennifermullins277]

I've read that you can grind the dried turkey tail mushrooms and add to coffee as well.

[@amyusvi]

What a great video. Your son does such a great job and makes the video even more special. Thanks for sharing.

[@nancyduncan6209]

Fantastic, I love walks in our woods with my grandsons. We're going to try this recipe. Thanks 👍

[@alexcreswell]

Eternal peace, love, and good vibes always! Thank you for sharing your knowledge/wisdom with us all!

[@amyhort8359]

Thanks for the very informative video! Also love Your jadeite cup and saucer!

[@jamesoliver5058]

If you ever get to do an adventure around our twin citys of st Joseph and Benton harbor Mich. Me and my daughter would love to learn more about wild edibles and meds

[@randallhesse5011]

Nice fire king(brand) cup.

[@lindamallett1956]

Thank you guys!! I love these mushroom videos. What a beautiful fungi! 😂 The colors are amazing and yes it does look like a turkey 🦃 tail. I am glad to learn the medicinal values also. Thank you!!

[@esotericgamedev]

Amazing

[@Cyno_.]

I love looking for mushrooms and when I try looking for turkey tails I usually get distracted by trying to identify different mushrooms. I always seem to get stuck on one of the most common types of mushrooms in Minnesota’s coniferous biome, the poly pore. No matter we’re you go you are most likely going to find a mushroom from the poly pore family. I’ve found many mushrooms before but I can’t ever seem to find turkey tails. The freezing winters are long and the very hot summers are short, it’s a great place to find mushrooms but yet luck isn’t on my side when it comes to turkey tails😂

[@gabby0329.]

Look on dead logs a couple days after rain & humid weather 😊

[@kirstenberdan2866]

I walked all day in the forest and there was none until i was walking out of the forest there was a log to the right of me covered in turkey tails! Super cool lol

[@doubleO07]

I really enjoyed this very informative and educational clip.

[@red_five1542]

If you think the stuff tastes bad and you can't imagine that it's supposed to taste good, you could always hit it with a little honey and squeeze a lemon.

[@lashbay5951]

Great experience and very helpful information thank you 🙏🏽

[@illumnitrollers4896]

Beautiful video thank you me and my kids just harvested some lovely turkey tail

[@Torchy84]

Amazing video thank you I love taking my kids to explore the woods

[@dr3amersl0unge21]

Amazing video brother! Just picked some turkey tail mushroom today ! Im about to make a good tea with it.

[@WanderingNature]

Thank you kindly for this Wonderful video!

[@jrn8774]

Nice video, Thank You.. I'm going out now

[@marksiegfried-t4p]

What if you dried them, ground them and just added some making food? Will it still work as far as being medicinal?

[@andrefecteau]

brew it up with coffee...fantastic way to get your "tail"

[@michellejones467]

I have 2 logs that have turkey tails on them but it looks like they have been on there for a while...would they still be viable if they are dry on the log or do they have to be newly grown on the log?

[@matthewnightingale6543]

Have seen these on my walks in the past.

[@billiegates853]

Pretty eyes my fun-gi ❤

[@LindaKaufman]

Thanks for another great video! Hope your tea works.....let us know next year! :)

[@jasonhenkel6247]

Great video. Very helpful.

[@lorrainecappuccio5727]

Loved your video start to finish!! I've seen other videos that grind the dried mushrooms with a mortar and pestle. What are your thoughts on doing that? BTW I love your jadeite glass too! I'm a collector.

[@Allyourbase1990]

I'm growing some now but can't find anything saying when they're ready to harvest

[@horgaszat80]

Thank you for this video.

[@heathersantrock8680]

Thank you for the information!!!

[@jayelbee777]

Loved your story at the end!

[@valemerine3676]

thank you

[@davidhopson9802]

Great video thanks

[@theBoss3121]

So u can use the dried up ones too in tea

[@kengovan9441]

Thanks 👍

[@marlalowry2189]

I wonder if you see a batch of turkey tail like that if you wait a while will they grow or should you just go ahead and pick them as they are

[@TwinCitiesAdventures]

Pick them

[@wolfenstein6676]

Thanks for the video, TCA, can you use the mushrooms freshly picked to make your tea or do you have to dehydrate them first?

[@pinecreekwildlife]

Nice Turkey 👍

[@lkulos]

finally a very useful video > thank you

[@branonpsu]

Thanks so much for the video I'm a big fan of a learn your land videos but I like yours better for turkey tails. I also really liked the plate and mug you are using my grandmother used to have one like it if you don't mind sharing what it's called it'd be cool to see if they have 1 on eBay.

[@TwinCitiesAdventures]

Cool, thanks! it's called "jadeite milk glass"

[@twbeechem1]

great video!

[@zoe2466]

Well done!!

[@Kendyizaguirre]

Thank you for your wisdom. Can I dehydrated this on my oven? I don’t have dehydrator.

[@lynnsbomb]

If it's not humid you can even dehydrate in the house on an empty table with newspaper or a cardboard box. Just check them every day or 2 and make sure they are apart from one another so they don't mold up.

[@RayRift]

Good channel name! Subscribed. Hey, do you think you would have a stronger brew if you used a coffee grinder to powder the dried mushrooms?

[@TwinCitiesAdventures]

Great question, I do that sometimes also. Always turns out great. Thanks for watching

[@madeleinebonn9056]

Great video! Thank you! Is there a way to dry them if you don't have a dehydrator?

[@TwinCitiesAdventures]

You can lay them flat in the sun or you can put them on a cookie sheet and put them in the oven on low heat.

[@medinalba]

do you have groups to hunt for mushrooms? and if yes, where is the location? I will like to find a company who takes people for mushroom hunting and teach the persons how to identifying them.

[@RitaLucasinCostaRica]

My turkey tail was larger, and hard when I harvested them. I have dried them in the sun for a few months. Are they still viable?

[@TwinCitiesAdventures]

I believe so.

[@lynnyeaman8856]

Do you have a FaceBook I’d love to show you what I found in my Back Yard May be Turkey Tail I have never ever picked wild before Until I googled this so called Turkey Tail

[@TwinCitiesAdventures]

I don’t have a Facebook for twin cities adventures.

[@melissalazenby6668]

Hi how many time can you reuse the mushroom or just throw away ? Many thanks

[@DTA-me3kv]

How else can you dry them out? Other than a dehydrator?

[@DTA-me3kv]

There's another false turkey tail that has a smooth background and feels like leather

[@heatherpinkston9304]

What if the turkey tail is slightly past its prime? Drink it anyway?

[@worldsfastestube7302]

Just dry them and breathe them you will be amazed

[@clonie9963]

I saw on another video that suggested you brew it for 40 mins at low heat avoid boiling to release the goodies?

[@TwinCitiesAdventures]

That doesn’t surprise me anyone can make a video and say whatever they want.

[@CarlKeeling1881]

What is that tea maker you have?

[@meofamerica811]

White Oak logs here

[@HappyQuailsLC]

I take it that consuming them when fresh is okay...I am just wondering why you made tea with dehydrated ones when you had fresh ones. Are consuming fresh ones more beneficial or potent than the dehydrated ones?

[@TwinCitiesAdventures]

I dehydrated them so I can store them for months. It’s a demonstration video.

[@HappyQuailsLC]

@@TwinCitiesAdventures Thank you, I was just curious :) I appreciated your showing us how to dehydrate them. All of this is new to me. :)

[@chrisnuenthel8937]

It's easy to brew a tea when dry. Basically the hot water penetrates faster when dry cause it doesn't have to displace the existing moisture.

[@aliciavalentyn5889]

🙏

[@missourihomesteader1611]

Do they have to be fresh. I recently discovered some but it being january i wasnt sure if they still could be collected.

[@TwinCitiesAdventures]

If you have properly identified them, then you are going to have to use your better judgement. I would say that as long as they aren't mushy or in the rotting stage and as long as they look generally normal then I would go ahead and harvest them.

[@saikc4759]

Thanks for sharing, i might seen this mushroom in woods but scared as they could be poisonous. Any app that would help identify? Again, wouldn’t trust 100% on app

[@TwinCitiesAdventures]

I would watch a bunch of KZbin videos and pick up a book. If you’re unsure, then don’t pick it or eat it and find a friend that knows more than you do.

[@wem-c9f]

I heard it’s bitter?

[@TwinCitiesAdventures]

More earthy to me. Sometime I add a spot of cream.

[@medinalba]

HOW DO YOU USE TEISE MUSHROOMS? OR COOKE THEM? I know this mushrooms helps with cancer... I know a person who is alive thanks to these mushrooms I WILL LIKE TO KNOW MORE... THANK YOU.

[@TwinCitiesAdventures]

just as you see in the video
