Nature's offerings for August
Summer Oysters,
Platterful and Beech Rooter Mushrooms along with Wild Ginger, Wood Sorrel and Wild Leek Bulbs. We begin our hike
at a meeting point just outside of the village of Bright where we search for assorted wild herbs. Then move on to a 200 acre parcel of Crown Land
for the Summer flush of mushrooms. The added reward is the beauty of Nature along with the calming effect of walking through forests. You never know
what you will find. And that's what you want in an adventure.
Start time: 10:00 am. Duration 2 1/2 to 3 hours.
Where: Bright area.
Cost: $45.00/person
August 2nd 2026
15 tickets available.
Black Trumpets and more
The Black Trumpet is in the same family as the Chanterelle. And yet, it is so different. From
the appearance to the taste. It is sometimes hard to spot on the forest floor, but once you see one others appear to the eye. Its smokey flavour is
so ironic because of its colour. But all in all it is worth the find. We will be searching for these gems along with Slippery Jack Boletes, red and
purple capped Russulas and the medicinal Turkey Tails.
Start time: 10:00 am. Duration 2 1/2 to 3 hours.
Where: Cambridge area.
Cost: $45.00/person
August 8th 2026
15 tickets available.
Mid Summer Fare
Not all forests are home to the same mushrooms. Terrains vary,
trees are not the same. And the light from the Sun is different from Wood to Wood. In our chosen forest for today we will be
searching for Black Trumpets, Russulas, Hedgehogs and Summer Oysters. Along the way we will be pointing the non edible variety as well.
Start time: 10:00 am. Duration 2 1/2 to 3 hours.
Where: Cambridge area.
Cost: $45.00/person
August 9th 2026
15 tickets available.
Mushrooms in a box, Mushrooms from the Forest
Mid August offers an assortment of mushrooms including Hedgehogs, Boletes, Russulas, Turkey Tails
and Summer Oysters. And, as a complimentary gift, participants will be taking home samples of mushrooms from from our supplier,
Fresh and Tasty Mushrooms.
Start time: 10:00 am. Duration 2 1/2 to 3 hours.
Where: Cambridge area.
Cost: $45.00/person
August 15th 2026
15 tickets available.
Reishi Mushrooms
Like the Turkey Tails, the Reishi Mushroom is also considered as one of the top medicinal
mushrooms in the world. Boosts the immune system, increases white blood cells and is currently being studied for its possible cancer fighting
properties. When young they have a deep yellow colour but as they age they turn a radiant red or burgundy. They are found on well decayed hardwoods
and should only be harvested when mature. Along with these gems we will be searching for other mushrooms such as Summer Oysters, Platterfuls, Beech
Rooters and, of course Turkey Tails.
Start time: 10:00 am. Duration 2 1/2 to 3 hours.
Where: Bright, ON area.
Cost: $45.00/person
August 16th 2026
SOLD OUT.
Chicken of the Woods
This weekend event we feature the highly sought after Polypore, Chicken
of the Woods. This is a very large and stunning mushroom with layers of red and yellow. Colours that make it stand out easily inside
dense
hardwood forests. This mushroom's texture resembles cooked boneless chicken breast. Hence the name. Among the other mushrooms
we will be searching
for are Summer Oysters, Turkey Tail, Fawn Mushrooms and others. This would be a great addition to anyone's Summer Holiday.
Start time: 10:00 am. Duration 2 1/2 to 3 hours.
Where: Bright area.
Cost: $45.00/person

Mushrooms of August
August is THE month for Summer Mushrooms. Hedgehogs, Russulas, Old Man of the Woods, Black Trumpets and
an array of Boletes. The forest we vist has pristine trails, trails that feature different terrains, different trees, untouched, the way
Nature should be. "The
Woods are very dark and deep and so are some of the mushrooms we seek."
Start time: 10:00 am. Duration 2 1/2 to 3 hours.
Where: Cambridge, Ontario area.

Giant Puffball Hunt at Barrie
15 tickets available.
One of the great celebrities of late Summer, the Giant Puffball demands attention if only for its size. So far our record find was an 18 pounder back in
2016. I don't think we can do much better than that. Outside of its dimensions the Puffball is also rated as "choice"
for taste the world round. They will be easy targets in the forest so why not
join us as we search for these along with Summer Oysters, Angel Wings, assorted Boletes, Wild Oregano and Wild Mint.

Chicken of the Woods
This weekend event we feature the highly sought after Polypore, Chicken
of the Woods. This is a very large and stunning mushroom with layers of red and yellow. Colours that make it stand out easily inside
dense
hardwood forests. This mushroom's texture resembles cooked boneless chicken breast. Hence the name. Among the other mushrooms
we will be searching
for are Summer Oysters, Turkey Tail, Fawn Mushrooms and others. This would be a great addition to anyone's Summer Holiday.
Start time: 10:00 am. Duration 2 1/2 to 3 hours.
Where: Bright area.
Cost: $45.00/person

Mushrooms of August
August is THE month for Summer Mushrooms. Hedgehogs, Russulas, Old Man of the Woods, Black Trumpets and
an array of Boletes. The forest we vist has pristine trails, trails that feature different terrains, different trees, untouched, the way
Nature should be. "The
Woods are very dark and deep and so are some of the mushrooms we seek."
Start time: 10:00 am. Duration 2 1/2 to 3 hours.
Where: Cambridge, Ontario area.

Giant Puffball Hunt at Barrie
15 tickets available.
One of the great celebrities of late Summer, the Giant Puffball demands attention if only for its size. So far our record find was an 18 pounder back in
2016. I don't think we can do much better than that. Outside of its dimensions the Puffball is also rated as "choice"
for taste the world round. They will be easy targets in the forest so why not
join us as we search for these along with Summer Oysters, Angel Wings, assorted Boletes, Wild Oregano and Wild Mint.
