Some New Mushrooms to Figure Out - September 24

September 24, 2025

Day 1,454 of the Adventure


With the recent wet weather, mushrooms of all kinds have been popping up around the woods. Several of them are edible and we've become confident in identifying them. Among them are Lion's Mane, Chicken of the Woods and Tree Ear. We're getting close on some others but I'm not ready to risk our lives on them yet until we have a better consensus with the local foragers (the ones that haven't died from eating poison mushrooms) IT'S A JOKE. Anyway, a huge batch of these are growing on our compost pile and we're on a quest to identify them now. 

UPDATE: Since writing this, I've learned that there are several varieties of mushrooms in this family. Some are edible and many are not. Supposedly, this one is okay, but they also caution that unless you are an absolute expert at telling them apart from eah other, it's best to just leave them alone! SO....... guess we won't put these on the menue!
