I was out hiking in Umstead the other day and came across some wild grapes. They were just begining to ripen, but most were too high to pick. I know of one spot to pick them in Cary...does anyone else know of places to pick wild grapes?

Also, if you know of any blackberry patchs, that'd be great, too!

Leaves of three, let it be...leaves of four, have some more. There are alot of mushrooms around you can go pick and eat

i wouldnt trust a guide unless you know enough about fungal morphology to be able to use it

well when I was hiking in umstead I saw at least 10 different kinds of mushrooms, I'm sure at least one kind could be edible.

I know where there are some choice Scuppernongs.

But that shit is a secret.

I don't eat wild mushrooms, but I really appreciate it when my kidneys are functioning so that might have something to do with it.
