Just a little heads up. Have any of you ever heard of this tasty treat? While I was coming out of the woods. I was walking through an oak flat. I heard that the " hen of the woods " can be found at the base of old and decaying oak trees. Well, they were right! I found a dandy. It looks like sea coral and can grow up to 50 lbs. MY find happens too be around 15 or so pounds. You talk about Delicious! So, next time any of you are in the vicinity of some oak trees, check around. You maybe blessed with some of the best foraging mushrooms around! Check it out on the Internet. Good luck!
