  • Mushroom Basics by Dan Gill, Ethno-Gastronomist
    Mushroom Basics By Dan Gill, Ethno-Gastronomist Photos compliments of “Wildman” Steve Brill http://www.wildmanstevebrill.com The Good White Morel Morchella deliciosa I was working in the woods on a fine spring day several years ago, when I thought I smelled mushrooms. Looking around the mixed hardwood stand dominated by Tulip Poplars, I noticed a lot of Sweetgum balls. When I looked closer, I realized that many were actually morel mushrooms in camouflage. Once my eyes and brain adapted to the difference, I realized that I was surrounded by a stealthy delicacy, some six inches high. I ran for some brown paper bags and picked several pounds. Though I have found edible mushrooms in every month of the year, the season really begins, at least psychologically, in early spring with the emergence of morels, or “merkles” as they are known by many mushroomers. Start looking around apple blossom time when wild asparagus and May Apples are up and oak leaves are the size of squirrel’s ears, or about mid April. Morels are sometimes found in unusual places, such as mulch piles and lawns (especially near elm trees), but they often inhabit old apple orchards, Tulip Poplar stands and burned over woodlands. If you find more than you can use right away, call me – I will even help you pick them! Otherwise dry them. Morel flavor actually intensifies with drying. There are many excellent edibles, besides morels, that grow in abundance throughout Virginia and are easily identified, once you know what to look for. The differences and points of distinction are characteristic and quite obvious: Is the cap of a certain color, texture or feel? Does it have gills, pores or spikes underneath? What color are the gills and spore print? Does it grow on the ground or on trees, in the woods or on lawns? Once you have seen, touched, smelled and tasted a specific mushroom, it is like telling the difference between an apple and a tomato.

  • Commercial Wild Mushroom Harvesting in the Willamette National Forest
    MUSHROOMS AND ENVIRONMENTAL JUSTICE: COMMERCIAL WILD MUSHROOM HARVESTING IN THE WILLAMETTE NATIONAL FOREST by BECCA MARSHALL A THESIS Presented to the Department of Environmental Studies and the Robert D. Clark Honors College in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Bachelor of Arts June 2018 An Abstract of the Thesis of Becca Marshall for the degree of Bachelor of Arts in the Department of Environmental Studies to be taken June 2018 Title: Mushrooms and Environmental Justice: Commercial Wild Mushroom Harvesting in the Willamette National Forest Approved: _______________________________________ Dr. Kathryn Lynch This research examines the extent to which Willamette National Forest’s management of commercial wild mushrooms incorporates environmental justice principles. In Oregon, the edible, wild mushroom industry contributes to a significant portion of the economy, and thousands of commercial harvesters are out picking. Commercial mushroom harvesters are a diverse group of people who live on the fringes of society, are highly mobile, politically weak and largely understudied. The United States Forest Service land makes up the majority of the land that harvesters rely on to pick mushrooms. However, timber activities like clear cuts and logging destroy mushroom patches and the voices of harvesters are largely missing in public planning processes that impact decisions made by the Forest Service. The disenfranchisement of the commercial wild mushroom harvester community relates to themes of environmental justice. Environmental justice looks at the undue burden actions place on marginalized communities, and through this lens we can examine how the Forest Service can more justly and holistically manage United States lands. For my research, I interviewed harvesters and land managers, and reviewed the Willamette National ii Forest’s natural resource documents for how they manage for wild mushrooms.

  • Mushrooms of the National Forests in Alaska
    Mushrooms of the National Forests in Alaska United States Forest Service R10 --RG 209 Department of Alaska Region FEB 2013 Agriculture Introduction The coastal temperate rainforests of the Tongass and Chugach national forests often produce prolific fruitings of mushrooms in late summer and fall. For many Alaskans, mushrooms are a source of food. For others, they are a source of pigments for dyeing wool and other natural fibers. Still others merely enjoy their beauty. However, all Alaskans should appreciate these fungi for, without them, there would be no forests here. This brochure presents an introduction to mushrooms and illustrates a number of the more common and interesting of our local species to help Alaskans and visitors to better understand and enjoy our magnificent national forests. Unlike most plants, birds, and mammals, very few mushrooms have common names. Thus, while we have used common names where they exist, many of the species in this brochure can be referred to only by their scientific names. But, never fear. If you can talk with your kids about Tyrannosaurus rex, you can handle mushroom names! What is a mushroom? Mushrooms are produced by some fungi (singular: fungus), and their primary purpose is to make and spread tiny reproductive propagules called spores, which function much like plant seeds. After long being considered primitive plants, fungi now are accepted as their own kingdom. Unlike plants, fungi cannot make their own food, and their cell walls contain chitin rather than cellulose. Interestingly, chitin also is found in insect exoskeletons, providing evidence that the fungi are more closely related to animals (including us!) than they are to plants.

    Forest Ecology and Management 5593 (2001) 1–14 3 Commercial harvests of edible mushrooms from the forests 4 of the Pacific Northwest United States: issues, management, 5 and monitoring for sustainability * 1 6 David Pilz , Randy Molina 7 Forest Service, Forestry Sciences Laboratory, Pacific Northwest Research Station, 8 US Department of Agriculture, 3200 SW Jefferson Way, Corvallis, OR 97331-4401, USA 9 10 Abstract 11 12 Widespread commercial harvesting of wild edible mushrooms from the forests of the Pacific Northwest United States 13 (PNW-US) began 10–15 years ago. A large proportion of suitable forest habitat in this region is managed by the Forest Service 14 (US Department of Agriculture) and Bureau of Land Management (US Department of the Interior). These lands are managed 15 under an ecosystem management philosophy that entails multiple-use, sustainable forest product harvesting, resource 16 monitoring, public participation in forest management issues, and holistic planning. Managing the harvest of edible 17 mushrooms engages every aspect of this management philosophy. We examine a variety of issues raised by mushroom 18 harvesting and how these issues interact with forest ecosystem management choices. We discuss regulations currently being 19 used by managers to conserve the mushroom resource while further information is gathered, unique challenges and 20 considerations inherent to sampling fungi, and current research and monitoring activities in the Pacific Northwest. Although 21 current scientific evidence suggests that harvesting likely will not harm the resource in the short term, no statistically-based 22 monitoring information exists about the cumulative impacts of intensive and widespread commercial harvesting over long- 23 time periods.
