“A New Incredible Lodge with Exclusive Morel Hunting with over 1400 acres of PRIME Morel Hunting” (Spring 2020)
Come and join Chris and Levena in Illinois for the 2023 Morel Mushroom Hunting Club’s Foray.
This is a brand new location, at an amazing lodge, over 1400 acres of prime private land with lots of dead elms! If you have followed this site, then you have seen photos and videos posted for the past 15+ years of forays with beautiful Morels that we found at Chris’ special locations! This is a remote location that Chris has previously scouted and has found some morel honey-holes that he wants to share with everyone on this foray. We have had much fun and success over the years. Find amazing Morels and learn many other edible varieties. Enjoy the most incredible mushroom cuisine feast that you could ever imagine, all cooked outdoors!
This is a once in a lifetime opportunity, so don’t miss out.
Call today and register, and receive discounts for paying early (in 2022) Optional $50 deposit per person can be paid to hold a spot as well and pay off the balance by January 31st.
Limited to the first 20 new registrants, (not including lifetime foray members)
