This season is one of the earliest starts to Chanterelle season that I can remember. We had lots of rain in mid May which got them started. Periodic rain after that initial glut, helped them immensely. I've had multiple 5+ pound forages already. Sunny and hot weather forecast for the end of June will put an end to this crop. I'll be waiting for the next round of rain, Maybe we'll have another crop or two this summer.

Chanterelles form on the rootlets of host trees. You can clearly see the mushrooms along a tree root in the photo.
