Picking & Foraging

Oregon has evolved into a culinary hotspot, but in many ways we’re still considered hunter/gatherers.

We can see the forests for the trees here, but we can also see the Chanterelles, Porcinis, and truffles, too. All throughout Oregon, nearly all year-round, something wild is happening. From October to spring, the Oregon truffle (yes, it’s so good, they named it after us) can be found hiding around our Douglas Firs. In April, spring rains and warmer weather wake the morels. Before we know it, it’s summer, and time for salmonberries, blackberries and the elusive huckleberry. Then it’s fall, and time to start all over again.
