Mushroom season and the secret spot

Mushroom season and the secret spot

Mushroom picking is close to a national sport: from August to October cars line forest roads at dawn, and markets fill with chanterelles (kukeseened) and ceps (puravikud). Many families keep their best spot to themselves.

When: Best August to October, in mushroom season.
