Foraging Gear


Dear reader, whomever you may be, 

You may have noticed an uptick on mushroom posts and blog posts in general. I've had a renewed interest in sharing my adventures and recipes with you. I am no longer in school and so my brain has remembered that there is space and time for this endeavor.  

I used to only hunt solo but now I have a solid crew that has a funny schedule like mine. Both my mother and father are relieved. They were always afraid for my wellbeing, alone in the woods, but I had never felt threatened. Going with others has definite benefits. More eyeballs and more ground covered and of course, someone to share thoughts with.

Here are our packing essentials:


  • cloth bag
  • basket
  • paper bags 
  • kershaw knife
  • power bars
  • hydro flask water bottle 
  • vivitar binoculars
  • organic lollipops
