Winter Chanterelle Mushrooms – foraging, cleaning, cooking
Hunting or foraging for Winter Chanterelle Mushrooms on Vancouver Island, BC. The wild mushroom, Craterellus tubaeformis, is also called the Yellow Foot or Yellow legs and it’s easily identified. We harvest, clean, and cook these delicious wild mushrooms. Our Winter Chanterelle wild mushroom recipe for flaky tarts is a homestead favourite.
The Garden Grows
This year we will be expanding the garden. Last spring we fenced in an 80′ x 80′ area of our former hay field.
