Culinary Mushroom Camp Sonoma

Winter rains mean mushrooms are popping up under trees. The way I learned to hunt for culinary mushrooms is to master one kind of mushroom, and when I'm 110% certain of that species, then I learn another. So I've created a series that helps you do this. This camp will be focused on black trumpets, chanterelles, hedgehog and candy cap mushrooms.

After 2 hours of hunting for these in the forest, we'll prepare a wild mushroom-focused lunch over a campfire at Salt Point State Park.

We'll work together to assemble lunch. We'll start with a grazing platter of mushroom pate, wildcrafted pickles and local cheeses  then make campfire mushroom flatbreads and have those alongside a green salad with wild watercress.  Dessert will include candy cap mushrooms and bay laurel nuts. Sparkling and still water will be provided. Feel free to bring other beverages of your choice.
