Ron Vilt Sr. had a good find of sheephead, also commonly known as hen of the woods, in mid-September and he starts Mushroom of the Week for this fall.
``If anyone wants to know where he got them, he will tell them `in the woods,’ ‘’ Ron Jr. emailed.
With that, MOTW begins. MOTW, the celebration of mushroom gathering (the stories matter) around Chicago outdoors, runs Wednesdays in the Sun-Times as warranted. Submit nominations by message on Facebook (Dale Bowman), on Twitter and Instagram (@BowmanOutside) or email (BowmanOutside@gmail.com).
