Amy,

Well, there's Oregon wine or beer, if I can ship it to Colorado / Chicago. Or how about some really good coffee beans?


Josh,

I'd be all over the wine or coffee beans. I've no extra mushrooms after this last season (just enough porcinis dehydrated to last me until next summer), so we'll have to make this a summer/fall 2011 trade. Deal?

Amy, may have nice Porcinis and Chantrelles but we have the best Jack-O-Lanterns and Morels. Stop by for dinner.

Morels...yum. Perhaps we can also work out a trade. :D

I understand Lib's concern about safety. We have a local gentleman by the name of John Sir Jesse (I kid you not) who comes to the restaurant and certifies the safety of the untold number of pounds of mushrooms we harvest.

I mean, how many towns do you know that have a Mushroom Festival?

Deal. I'd prefer to send coffee ... it's much cheaper to ship. Blue Bottle?

I found this on Foodgawker - braised chicken thighs with chantrelles.

And then there is the Cream of Chantrelle Soup with Wild Rice:

How many towns do you know that have a festival every weekend, including the "no festival" festival weekend? :lol: :lol: :lol:

java,

Nice to hear there is more than one mushroom festival out there!

And Ilene speaks the truth. We have some kind of festival almost every weekend of the summer...including the "Nothing Festival" which is just as it sounds...except it's become the unofficial weekend for the naked bike ride. And yes, I'm serious.

Amy,

A naked bike ride in Telluride? I mean, we're used to that sort of thing in Berkeley and on the Castro, but in Colorado?

Anyway, when we went to the Oregon coast, we missed the Yachats Mushroom Festival ... possibly the country's biggest trade in chantrelles and truffles ... by a couple of weeks. Grrr.

Yes, there used to be one in Boulder as well (and probably some other towns), but the Boulder cops threatened to arrest anyone riding naked this year.

That's true. I'd forgotten about that...a fellow chef told me about a truffle hunting class they do.
