So fascinating! I live in the Adirondack mountains 🏔 of way way upstate NY lol, I’m about 25 minutes from the Canadian border!! (Even had a job once cleaning the border patrol office lol, that was a trip lol) but here we have so many beautiful, natural, organic, raw, and absolutely delicious resources for foraging and fishing and hunting! I can’t wait to get out this spring and find some wild mushrooms here and use them as well! Very inspiring!
@@just_alex have you ever made ‘stuffed mushrooms’ they are to die for… I did used large portobello. Stuffed them w spinach, peppers, bacon , spinach ,ricotta and parmesan. Topped with Panko and olive oil. Then bake. Soooo tasty !!
Stunning video Alex! Great video work as per usual. I really like the lack of commentary too, I think it captures the atmosphere of being alone in the forest with nature.
Mid nightshift break and this falls into my lap , cracking work dude really great to see your foraging mushroom journey let alone camera skills improving lovely jubbily 🍄🌲🤙
hi Alex, what camera you use for your videos? And regarding mushroom picking, if you want to come here in Italy i will be very glad to bring you to some places where I do mushroom hunting (since my activity is selling mushrooms)... and ps: it would be better to pick them entierely, not cutting them
I love your choice of adventures, arming yourself with the most basic yet very beneficial knowledge and appreciation of the natural world. Superb research and presentation as well as very interesting and useful information from a very likeable and interesting guy 👍👍👍
Hi just Alex great videos all the best to your new adventure all grown up now lol but seriously great content Im a very keen carp angler but love the wild outdoors camping and foraging so I appreciate what your doing Loving it mate!
Great little video. Sorry to say I dont like mushrooms but I do enjoy watching you forage for them and cook them up. The words on the screen were perfect.you didnt need to say anything.just a great video. More please!!
hey alex can you explore coastal foraging next? like scallops, crabs, oysters, and the things you can eat just in the coastal area of your region? i've been binge watching your videos lately and i felt like you havent explored that part yet! much appreciated, thanks!
I love Amithyst Deceivers, they're so beautiful. Love this vid, I'd never thought to go out foraging and then do a cook up outdoors, which is weird since my channel is all about outdoors and catch n cooks but will defo give this a go once i can get out. Love the cinematography in this aswell, suck beautiful shots 😊
Nice video. Nice concept. Nicely niced. Love your fishing channel with Carl. I've a premonitiom if you persevere with Just Alex, honestly (ish) documenting the unique, personal A Smith Goes "To The Future" - we're all going there too, obv - if you follow your nose and inclination, it's going to lead to something remarkable (and important). That's a premonition, that is.
Awesome video mate, never foraged mushrooms just a question, what’s the benefit to cutting then at the bottom of the stem as opposed to just picking them, does this allow rejuvenation of the mushroom, etc never thought I’d be finding mushroom videos interesting, I Follow the fishing vids. Enjoy your new venture mate, would enjoy to see how to get some of your photography and wildlife shots because there amazing mate. Good luck with the new venture I’ll be following it 💯 regards J
Those who prefer picking the entire wild mushroom argue that cutting can leave a stump that acts as a disease vector when it rots. On the other hand, proponents of cutting say that it results in higher yield and that the technique doesn't cause too much disruption to the mycelium underground unlike picking. Cutting bigger mushrooms at the base allows the base itself and smaller mushrooms to continue to grow. So I'd say pluck small ones and cut the big ones.
@@EternalVR Cheers for that information mate, never personally foraged mushrooms, but watching these vids is definitely interesting Cheers Boys much appreciated 💯💯 regards J
@@just_alex It would be great to see a segment on that! I like your long style of video that you've been preparing for months as you get a lot of information, but I would also be happy to see shorter and more frequent videos/updates!
