Dandelion Kombucha 😋

Our faithful oyster log continues to provide although I can see a significant decrease in production this year. And how much the log has decomposed!Sadly this flush was a little past its prime. But good harvestings ahead as were entering spring oyster season!

Yesterday was a good day to be foraging. Besides the beautiful spring weather we scored a patch of half-free morels, as well as some Japanese knotweed shoots and maple blossoms. Today we'll have ourselves a "wild" dinner.

Fiddleheads of the lady fern are reaching for the sky in zone 8. Also got to debut a recent gift, a rigid foraging case, great for not crushing more delicate finds.

Took another crack at willow basket making. This one is probably twice the size of my first one. The willow was gathered along the roadside just east of Prineville, and although I'm not sure of its species I am certain it's a basket weaving willow because of how flexible it is. This time, however, I let it dry a couple weeks first yet still being pliable. My hope is it wont shrink too much. All in all the weaves came out pretty tight, just had only a few mis-weaves. 😁

These are the gifts that just keep on giving. I can check our little mushroom tent every few days it seems to find more Shiitakes. It's at the perfect pace where we can eat them in time for the next flush. They're such interesting looking food, and tasty too 😋
