Blue Mushrooms

[Sarah Crutchfield]

Some of you may remember posts from The Cabin Path.  For many years, I had children's art/nature workshops. Sadly, I no longer have those workshops.  There is still that "fear factor" in nature, and since it involved my backyard (52 acres), there were liability insurance rates and risks.  I miss them and the all of adventures we had exploring, looking, learning, and creating!

Over the weekend, I discovered "Blue" mushrooms!  They are easily indentified, edible, and  a fun way to involve children and nature! I posted my experiment on my blog, http://thecabinpath.blogspot.com/2012/08/blue-mushrooms.html

Hi Sarah, I really appreciated your posts from the Cabin Path, and was wondering what happened to you. I'm so sorry that children will no longer have the same beautiful experiences on your land, especially as that's due to liability issues. What a loss. I do appreciate you sharing about blue mushrooms. I've never seen anything close to their size and color. Fascinating!

Thanks for sharing. I have a new mushroom to be on the lookout for. What a great blog entry and project.
