2019 Connecticut Morels

Hey clutch2412 I may have noticed something from your photos . do we both favor the same morel harvesting tool??? Just wondering...

 

Redfred is that in CT? Congratulations, beautiful mushroom!

 

I'm sorry ....I'm in Maryland it was more about the tool then the shroom sorry again about any confusion...

 

Hello. Found these 2 guys growing alongside my cabin in Branford just this morning. As of 2 hours ago, I had no idea what one of these guys were. Hopefully I did not pick them too early?

 

Thank you! I did indeed search around a little bit more and found one more. A tad bigger as well, all currently soaking in a little salt water. More searching tomorrow.

 

I found 6 Half-Free’s in the rain today that were salvageable. This was in the western part of CT. No pictures... I ate ‘em too fast.

 

New member here - I hit the jackpot this morning with these beauties in my front yard. Easy foraging for sure. Next to an old crabapple tree with tulips in bloom underneath and lots of old leaves and undergrowth (late doing my spring cleanup this year).

 

Decided I'd better harvest them before the lawn service comes - Are they supposed to be this big?? (I'm a newbie)..

 

Big is good!

 

In spite of my amateur foraging status I decided to live dangerously and cook them up - and am I glad I did!! Delicious and now I’m hunting for more!
