People don't review us politely. They review us obsessively.

Even though I'm a native Washingtonian, I'd never actually gone shellfish gathering before. Now I'm counting down the days until I can go foraging for chanterelles with them this Fall.

I was skeptical that the premium price was worth it, but boy, was I wrong. It was worth every penny and an adventure I won't soon forget.

I've been on other mushroom foraging trips before, but their chanterelle hunt was by far the best. The best foraging trip I've ever been on.

Before the intro class I had only picked mushrooms at the grocery store. I now feel confident foraging on my own.

Rain or shine, this is the perfect way to get your shellfish fix. We'll be back every season.

Who knew a mushroom foraging class in the off-season could be so fun? I can't wait to put my new knowledge to use once prime season begins.

Know before you go - the wild calendar

Foraging follows the seasons. Here's what's running, and when to plan your trip.

Sep - Nov

Chanterelles

Peak season for golden chanterelles. Our most-booked hunts - they sell out fast.

Oct - Nov

Matsutake

The prized, fragrant pine mushroom. A short window for serious foragers.

Year-round

Shellfish

Oyster & clam digs follow the tides, not the calendar. Rain or shine.

Seasonal

Pop-up feasts

Wild dinners drop a few times a season. Blink and they're gone.

Be first when chanterelle season opens.

Drop your number or email and we'll send one message the moment new dates go live. No spam, just the good stuff.

Feed your wild side.

Your basket, your beach, your forest. Small groups, real foragers, and a story you'll be telling for years.

Hey, wild one. Ask me anything - seasons, what to bring, gift cards, booking.
When's chanterelle season?
Chanterelles peak September to November here in Washington. Our "Crazy for Chanterelles" full-day hunt ($239) is the one to book - Fall dates go fast. Want me to pull live availability?
