I'm late to the party here but do you go picking regularly with a crew? Will you be going again this year (are you looking for people?) - fire season last year will most likely produce a ton of fire morel. 🍄

Tonnes this year yea forsure

If you're hanging around a big camp there are regularly groups of people hanging out at main camps near buyer stations or you can decide to go solo, I will be doing it again
I also did pine mushrooms at the end of the season this year which went on until the snow flew.

I was thinking about doing this in northern ontario this year....

Awesome! Quebec should have a bunch aswell!!

I was born out there. I may be interested in checking out the north for mushies as it may be more promising than out here in BC


Winter has been dry
. And I just read an article it mentioned that there are still 'Zombie fires' burning up north from last years fires.

Morels need alot of wet. To produce well

Bc has been hectic with heat the past few years... and I kind of miss ontario

Its been mild out this way so i'm hoping for the right conditions this spring. Have you picked in ontario before? I'm new picking on this type of scale but i've heard stories from bc and sask.
