We have got a really nice fungi contingent going on steemit! Lion's mane is definitely in the top three of foraging choices and quite beautiful

Hi, thank you for your request to join MAP; here is your invitation to the Minnows Accelerator Project (MAP) chatroom.

You will initially be welcomed as a New MAPster! Please post your recent articles and when one makes it into a "Six of the Best" contest you will then have full access to further interact, collaborate and promote your work. See you there!

wow, those look deeeeeelicious, and you're cultivating them too, awesome... where can I place my order?! :D

Haha! We are going to start indoor cultivation and cloning/breeding hopefully next year too. They are seriously deeelicious!! If you were local we definitely do business!

I'm really going to have to find out what mushrooms we have growing here in Australia. So far I've only been confident enough to harvest a puff ball!

This was an awesome post! Following & RESTEEMED!

It makes me want to get out in the woods and explore. Do you happen to know if these mushrooms occur farther south down toward Arkansas?

Thank you and honestly I'm not sure. I know they do in south carolina and have seen a few people in other groups in Florida find them (if my memory is serving me correctly) so i would assume they'd be in Arkansas but i honestly can't say for sure. They are worth the hunt!

This is awesome...i upvoted u dear
Keep on steeming,i love your posts

How in the world you found the time to learn all this stuff just amazes me. Your whole family amazes me!
oh. change your "blog" tag to the word "busy" without the quotes. You might like it.

Thank you @jonknight! I wish there were more hours in a day. ..

Wow what beautiful mushrooms! I am so glad I stumbled upon your post you are instantly one of my favorite Steemiters! This is a seriously cool post, can't wait to dig through your blog and read more about your life. So cool that you guys are cultivating these and other mushrooms and what a beautiful family!

Thank you for all the kind words! We are still very new to steemit, just over a week. So much more to write about, just gotta make the time haha. I've been a bad blogger over the years, in going to stay more dedicated to sharing with steemit motivation. Mushrooms are so fascinating to us in so many levels. I hope we can help others catch the fungus fascination too!

Nice foraging in looking up high for those arboreal mushrooms! I've climbed trees for Oyster mushrooms, but all the Lion's Mane that I've found have been within reach from the ground. Maybe I've missed some by not looking up high enough!

I'm with you about the tastiness of the Lion's Mane. I like that they can come back in the same spot year after year, too. Good luck with your cloning project, too.

Thank you! We aren't seeing any mycelium growth yet but still kinda hopeful given the rudenmentary methods we were using. Hoping to gwt a little lab set up next year so we can come and cultivate some of these great wild specimens we find. Lions mane is so yummy! Have you had it prepared many ways?

I've been happy with a simple sautee. I'm a 'simpler is better' kind of cook, lol. And I don't like to swamp out the flavor of mushrooms. I have found Lion's Manes in Oregon, Arkansas, and Michigan. And they always give me a big smile. And I gave my dad a grow-your-own kit that was pretty successful, too. Here's to next year's harvest and the success of your totem system, too!

Thanks!! Before we started cultivating them we were a simple sautee mind frame as well and when we have it in limited quantity that's the way t we roll (and in my opinion the best way to eat lion's mane!) But when you've got 5+ lbs in a week you're trying to consume you start to get creative. lol I LOVE mushrooms simply sauteed but I also love the versatility of mushrooms. We eat a lot of mushrooms so I find it fun to play in the kitchen after we've had our feel of straight up shrooms. Do they taste any different on the west coast as the do on east side? We are thinking of eventually making some of those kits to sell after the lab is setup! We already sell oyster logs but would love to have some kits to offer to people with the wild productive strains we find.

I couldn't tell any difference in taste from any of Lion's Manes I've eaten from different sources. Good luck with your kits! They are a common and popular item here in Oregon at farmer's markets and the Christmas fairs.

Great work. Thanks for sharing the videos.

My pleasure! Thanks for watching!

I hope to find some of those some day!

Very nice find and article information! I just sampled my first taste of lion's mane and instantly fell in love. After consumption have you noticed any effects? My grandpa has been developing what we believe to be dementia and his memory has been getting considerably worse over the past year. A few days ago after learning more about this mushroom I decided to order him a bottle of lion's mane capsules from host defense to try out. He should be receiving them any day now and I'm excited to see if they have a positive effect for him. Thanks for sharing and I look forward to learning more about your totem technique !
