Funny thing is: He said he doesn't really care to eat them. "They're OK but I don't see all the hype..."
It is still early, but I got some nice ones today from the usual patches on my place and left behind a boatload of little ones.

Thanks for the inspiration, Miller. Madison and I are going to go check our spot in the morning.
I was not surprised to find some, but I was very surprised by how many there were and how well grown they were. I walked these spots 10 days ago and there was no sign of golden life in the duff. I hope this is some indication of what's to come in the next month or so. Could be a banner year for Chanterelles. I ate some with dinner tonight and they were fantastic.

Madison and I went to our spot today. We did not see any. Hopefully they will come along in the next few weeks.
Bummer. I have noticed in the last few years that in some of my spots I habitually find them early at the end of June to first part of July, some are reliably right on schedule in mid July to early August and some are habitually later in mid to late August. I have no idea why, but my earliest reliable spot and latest one is only a few hundred yards apart.
They just popped up in my spot here in central, OH. Lots of little ones. I took just enough for a meal.
Brock, you better go check on your Chanterelle patch. I went for a walk Wednesday in my best honey holes and found some Chants every place I looked and brought home about 3lbs worth. I checked my spots on my place today after I got done mowing and they were up everywhere and in better numbers than I recall ever seeing this early. I filled two buckets, about 7lbs worth, with some really nice and pretty ones and will go back tomorrow and get just about than many more. Off to a kick-ass start to Chanterelle season.
