Last weekend Robert Rogers offered a Medicinal Mushroom workshop at Pacific Rim College in Victoria. We were amazed by his knowledge of mushrooms (some edible, medicinal and some toxic) and herbs too! After an in-class review of some fungi we headed out to identify some local species.
Here are a few we saw.......
Fomitopsis pinicola (Red Belted Conk) -medicinal
Trametes versicolor (Turkey tail)-edible
