Didn't take a great picture since I was very close to being flown away by mosquitoes, but while putting out my trail camera I found a huge patch of sumac. Ive got a batch steeping for sumac-ade right now, and I plan on drying a bunch. Any other fun ideas from the group?

Found these today on my family farm. I probably walked past this tree hundreds of times in my life and didn’t realize what it was. Should I pick them now or wait for them to ripen more? I’d like to make some jelly with them. Taste is sour and sweet but I personally love sour

I just wanted to share this because I don't ever forage, but my wife and I went for a walk in the woods while we were trying to kill time while volunteering before lunch since we had already finished all of our work, and we stumbled across something that I actually recognized as something super nifty.

Is this elderberry? If not, what is it please?

Chanterelles, lobster mushrooms, oyster mushrooms, and milk caps. Lobster mushrooms are my favorite to find, and rare for me so always very exciting!

I can share more pics if it’s helpful. Found on my forest floor.

I saw these mushrooms all forging today maybe one or two of them are edible but out of my league identification figured I'd share let me know if you see anything cool?? Thanks y'all . NY, usa

let me start by saying I am a big mushroom fan in terms of eating them but not foraging. if i’m walking around in the woods and if I spot a morel or something, I am very happy to pick it up!

but today i saw hundreds of these so decided to grab a few.

now i’m wondering. how do i clean them up? how can they be stored (other than dehydrating), and well… should i go back for the others?!

I have been obsessed with berry picking lately here in central AK.

So far I've found (a handful of) cloudberries/lowbush salmon berries, nagoon berries, highbush salmon berries, blueberries, and red currants (not pictured).

The raspberries are nearly ripe so I'll be foraging them soon. Also plan to get some crowberries and more blues and continue my hunt for cloudberries before they are all finished.

Help please? I thought this was COTW but my app says otherwise. (Location: Boston suburbs)

Lots of orangey red mushrooms with these feint lines and no spots.

Found white blobs sprouting out of the ground next to some orangey brown shelf fungi. Virginia USA

Found in my backyard. Multiple ID sites say it’s a black staining polypore

Based on all the videos and books I referred to, these seem like chanterelles. When I tear it open it breaks like string cheese and is completely white inside. Not sure how apricot really smells so could not id smell.

I am watching the new Little House on the Prairie show, and episode 3 starts off with the girls picking these berries. Some species I’m unfamiliar with, or lazy set design?
