Foraged

Jordan Jordan November 8, 2014 3 Comments

Spotted this guy tucked in a corner of the parking lot next to Wine World on 4th Ave NE.

That’s James of WildWillis selling wild mushrooms foraged by his father (and other foragers) on the Olympic Peninsula. When I passed by Friday night, he had a mix of chanterelle, black trumpet, matsutake, cauliflower, lobster and other varieties on hand.

WildWillis will be in that spot Thursdays to Sundays, 10 am – 8 pm through Christmas.

On a related note, it’s mushroom season in Wallingford, as well. I’ve spotted some beautiful Amanita Muscaria, below (don’t eat it!), as well as some other crazy looking monstrosities. So much bounty abounds, makes me wish I had mycological skillz.

    Wow! That is absolutely great. Now I don’t have to wait for Saturday or Sunday farmers markets.

    This has been a crazy fall for mushrooms! I’ve got a bunch of puffballs in my back yard, and am seeing many varieties in people’s yards as I walk around, iincluding some that look exactly like the white mushrooms we get at the grocery store. I share your wish for mycological skillz, Jordan!

    Great news to hear that we’ve got wild ‘shrooms in the neighborhood!
