Wild mushrooms of Quebec

The force that propels a mushroom to sprout out of nowhere is called Puhpowee by the Anishinaabe ethnobotanist  Keewaydinquay.  It is in the Potawatomi language and literally translates as “unseen energies that animate everything”. This StoryMap takes you to 10 locations in Quebec and Ontario where I have found wild mushrooms. I acknowledge that I was foraging on aboriginal land that has been inhabited by Indigenous peoples from the beginning. I am grateful that I had the opportunity to be on this land and I thank all the generations of people who have taken care of this land - for thousands of years. In particular I acknowledge the traditional territory of the Haudensaunee (Iroquois), Ojibway/Chippewa and Anishnabek.
