Morels...

Fire morels are a thing in the US, but mostly (perhaps only) west of the Rocky Mountains.

Morchella esculenta is the variety that folks in flyover country are most familiar with.

We’re about 30 days away from morel season here. I’m planning to take a week of vacation in April. Hopefully Mother Nature will cooperate with favorable weather. It’s been awhile since any of my spots have given up a bumper crop. Maybe this time...

Thank you! I hope you and Pollard both have good luck with the Ozark morel season.

(I always thought it odd that Oceola thinks of itself as the start of the Ozarks! )
