FREDERICTON New Brunswick s ecosystems have a lot to offer in the fungi field, but for a first time forager there s a lot to learn. Chanterelles are probably pretty straight forward oyster mushrooms as well to an extent boletes are a little ambiguous at times, said Anthony Brooks, an avid mushroom hunter. New Brunswick is a forager s paradise according to chef Alex Mayberry. The area we re in has some of the best mushroom foraging conditions in the world with a lot of research and a lot of patience and a lot of picture taking I think that s kind of what got me into it, Mayberry said.
