Only once in my over 30 years of picking this has it failed. The second part of October is the best time and I can always find large quantities in short time in damp mossy spruce woodlands which there is much of near me. Fortunate then that it&#8217;s one of the tastiest and it dries quickly for long term storage.This year is no exception and an oven load is now drying (too warm to have the wood burning stove on for drying).<\/p>\n<div id='gallery-1' class='gallery galleryid-19368 gallery-columns-1 gallery-size-large'><figure class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon portrait'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='http:\/\/www.edimentals.com\/blog\/?attachment_id=19369'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"600\" height=\"799\" src=\"http:\/\/www.edimentals.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/P1870103.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large\" alt=\"\" aria-describedby=\"gallery-1-19369\" srcset=\"http:\/\/www.edimentals.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/P1870103.jpg 600w, http:\/\/www.edimentals.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/P1870103-225x300.jpg 225w, http:\/\/www.edimentals.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/P1870103-300x400.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<figcaption class='wp-caption-text gallery-caption' id='gallery-1-19369'>\n\t\t\t\tIf fungi had been essential for survival, only winter chantarelle (traktkantarell) would be worth picking in the woods.
