"The rain is here and so are the mushrooms,"
proclaimed Iso Rabins, head of ForageSF, on Twitter, and so they are. Take yourself to Sonoma this weekend to go on a three-hour mushroom foraging expedition with mushroom foraging expert Patrick Hamilton.
A
reasonably affordable $90 gets you an afternoon tramping around the Sonoma Coast learning to find, identify, and cook commonly found mushrooms "and other tasty forage-worthy treats." Sounds like a fun Saturday to us. Buy tickets in advance and meet at the Jenner Sea Store parking lot, and if you can't make the one this weekend, there are
plenty more happening over the fall.
Just be cognizant of this disclaimer from the ForageSF team:
"As with all foraging, there is never any guarantee of finding mushrooms. What we do guarantee is that you’ll spend time with one of the most knowledgable foragers in the state, and learn the ins and outs of foraging in the woods, and leave with more than enough knowledge to jumpstart a lifetime of foraging."
