Spruce bolete -Leccinum sp.

$250.00 – $2,000.00

SKU: N/A Category:

Spruce bolete – Leccinum species similar to Leccinum piceinum growing with spruce ( piceinum is a european designation )

The consumption of the leccinum genus has been implicated in causing issue with food intolerance, specifically fresh undercooked leccinums in and around the rocky mountains. All of our leccinums are sourced from Ontario and Quebec and will not cause the same issues as similar varieties of the same mushroom elsewhere. However like many wild foods, individual tolerance to the mushroom may differ and without proper cooking leccinums may cause minor sickness.

About Us

Wild Mushrooms is an American (Oregon) company that proudly supplies wild, hand-picked foods to restaurants; farmers markets; hotels; gift, food, and health stores; and to individual customers via our online store. All of our foods are sustainably harvested from the United States wilderness by trained, knowledgeable pickers. Our suppliers practice progressive harvesting methods — ones that are both sustainable for its neighbouring plant species and surrounding ecosystem; and for the pickers themselves, whose livelihood is supported by a thriving source of wild foods.

Our specialized pickers (consisting of Indigenous people, women, youth, retirees, farmers, and professional foragers) are usually residents of rural or remote communities who respect the lands that support them. Only those wild foods that grow in great abundance and whose survival is not in danger are considered for harvest. Wild mushrooms also works with regional and northern wild food producers to help propagate rare wild food plants by reintroducing them to lands that need remedial attention, such as overgrazed woodlots and pastures.
