#HumboldtCounty

LoCO’s daily Instagram battle ran from March 2015 to June 2016. Instagram no longer serves the photos, so what’s left is who posted, when, the votes and the captions.

2:57 a.m.: 🍂Been away in the woods🍃Found my first white Matsutake (Tricholoma magnivelare)! 🍄Thick flesh, characteristic of Tricholomas, and the aroma very distinct - like that of spicy sweet cinnamon! Edible and highly prized, it can sell for as much as $100 a piece in some places in the world. This one, so sweetly emerging from its veil, was nestled in ericaceous litter, peeking its cottony margins out😍It was delicious!🍽 #fungusamongus #mushrooms #mycophile #mycology #fungus #shroomatnoon #fungi #mushroomlover #pnw #humboldt #norcal #upperleftusa #pnwcollective #pnwonderland #humboldtcounty #forest #forestfinds #northcoast #fungiaffair #mushroomspotting #mushroomhunting #allthemushroomhashtags #tricholoma #tricholomamagnivelare #whitematsutake #matsutake #ediblemushrooms #prizedmushroom #foraged #wildlovefood
