There is nothing more rewarding than coming home with a basket of wild mushrooms after a day in the woods! We plan to expand our cultivation to include oyster mushrooms, and will likely inoculate some poplar logs this spring. Leif Lonnie,

(In fact, we'd probably be willing to lead a "mushroom walk" sometime in exchange for the opportunity to bring some home for ourselves!) In terms of cultivation, there are huge opportunities out there for cultivating and encouraging wild mushroom species (and other wild foods). I know Chanterelles can go for over $100.00 per pound. We don't generally sell the mushrooms we find, but this year I did trade some Chicken mushrooms for a six pack of beer at the Batesville Store!
