Wild mushrooms in abundance

In our beautiful Arrow Lakes Valley, there are approximately 80 different edible wild mushrooms. Most mushrooms can be found for only a limited time, usually either in the spring or fall. Some are present in the spring, then disappear during the hot dry summer months and reappear in the fall. Each species of wild mushroom has it own habitat. All mushrooms grow at different elevations, some as high as 5000 ft. They grow on trees, on the ground and on fallen wood. Many are difficult for the untrained eye to see. Most mushrooms grow under second growth forest singly, in groups or in clusters. Knowing the differences between the mushrooms before picking and eating them is essential.
