WILD ASPARAGUS, LAST WEEK OF APRIL, 2012                       

I am not one of those "Armageddon is coming soon, prepare for doomsday, dig a bunker!" type of survivalist". I do however take great pleasure in traipsing about the woods and meadows in search of wild edibles. Last week it was harvest time for wild asparagus, one of the greatest treats of Mother Nature. 

But now that the rains have come and the first day of May is upon us, my hunt switches to my favorite fungi: The magnificent morel!
