    Garrett, nice to see you out there and well-prepared for the weather, love the hat and pants! I am enjoying the chaga chunks in slow cooker as you taught us and add some turkey tail (your staff sent out) in to other hot beverages as well....Stay warm, my friend!

    That observation about spiders is really interesting. Some spiders ride through the air too.

    Very nice chaga. Any chaga I’ve ever found is only about fist sized.

    I’ve watched many others collect this and they say that you should leave about half of the piece in the tree, is that not true?

      Lynne, I'm glad you brought this up. I've written extensively on this subject in my blog: birchboys.com/blogs/about-our-chaga/is-wild-chaga-harvesting-sustainable
      (Read section numbered 4 for the short answer) but if you are curious about my thoughts on Chaga sustainability, you may want to read the entire page.

    Excellent video.., what are your best tips for finding chaga ?

    • @GarrettKopp
      @GarrettKopp  2 года назад +1

      Plan your searching based on the history of the land and whether or not the trees have been logged recently or left alone. And of course you want to look for birch trees - but also focus along creeks / rivers / swamps and sources of steady moisture / fog / humidity to fuel the Chaga growth. All fungi crave humidity. 🙂
