This year I really hit the sweet spot for Lobster Mushrooms!
Did YOU get some of these at market yesterday?! Will the gourmet community step up and Expand THEIR Palates’ ? The price looks high, but keep in mind where you are! How many opportunities to buy Lobster Mushrooms FRESH exist in Nashville? I NEVER seen anyone else offering them, not anywhere, not anyhow… and yet they are a highly sought after wild food, it can NOT be cultivated and is generally NOT found in middle TN in anywhere near the quantity I have for sale.
To hunt (forage) anything from 1100 miles away… well, its hit or miss really, and this year I got the bases loaded (with 12# of FRESH Lobster Mushrooms) and my slugger up to bat, (offers advertising the Lobster Mushrooms) down by 3 (sales are down 30% this year) bottom of the 9th with 2 out, and a full count to boot. This really might be my last big foraged offering, its a lot of effort, time, and a little $. I love foraging, and I will keep going, just maybe not at the level to able to offer goods to restaurants.
