Big Post-Fire Benefit: Bumper Crop Of Morels




The Jefferson Exchange show

Summary: The fire sweeps through and blackens everything in its path. Then, a few weeks or months later, green shoots. And morel mushrooms, lots and LOTS of morels in some places. Recent fire seasons have laid waste to large patches of forest, but also encouraged the growth of the tasty mushrooms. Johnny Anderson, one of the owners of Foods In Season , is a big fan of morels.
