There's a fungus among us.

Some tiny red Chanterelles for you to enjoy :) Often too small for many to bother with, they do taste great!

And for #juneteenth let me drop some knowledge on you. Are you ever annoyed by lack of ability to forage due to laws, or someone yelling at you to leave no trace?

Well guess what, those laws and concepts - that we cannot forage anything and must always attempt to have no impact (*tries to not digress at what a weird idea it is that we can possibly exist and never affect anything ever*) including not foraging for food is racist! Yup! Most these laws and rules all have their roots in preventing Black, Brown, and Indigenous peoples from obtaining food.

If you are interested in learning about foraging, I highly recommend looking to folk like The Black Forager (sorry, they're only on corporate socials) and others who have knowledge of how to be a part of the earth without over taking.

A general rule of thumb I was taught is "never more than you/family that relies on you need for this meal, and never more than half of what is there". This ensures others can have some, that there is some left, and that what is taken will be used timely and not hoarded.

Of course, it had to be back to hot and humid. I'm tired...but only half way through the week.
