"You mean the $6.25 ones?" I asked, incredulously. "Those are as cheap as they get" he said. |
I needed about a dozen 2x4x12's about a month ago, went to Lowes, they were about $12 each, so went to Ho Depot and found them for less than $8, the quality sucked but it was just for a lean to small carport so they work.

I just came back from the West Seattle Farmers Market. That grower I mentioned earlier definitely has Shitake mushrooms. He had a larger size and a standard size. They were around $7 and $6 packages. Sorry I can't remember the units of measure. He also carried Shitake mushroom growing kits. Here is the grower--Sno Valley Mushrooms. ~z

Ski, that price is an amazing discount. Hope you loaded up. Re the lobster mushroom - I finally tried them for the first time not long ago. I was skeptical about taste because in their raw form they appeared only slightly less "woody" than a conk. But they're fabulous sliced thin & sauteed in my usual way. They really color up the oil/butter too, so I suppose they're a good 'shroom for fabric coloring.
