Mushroom Festival, Kennett Square, PA

Last week, I attended the Mushroom Festival in Kennett Square, PA. Kennett Square is named the 'mushroom capital' as it produces more than half the country's mushrooms.

king oyster mushrooms—ice cream flavors (chocolate toadstool, pumpkin mushroom)—pumpkin mushroom ice cream (it was yummy)—button mushrooms

'shroomies' breaded, fried portobello, jalapeno and cheese in the shape of a sliced mushroom—last year's mushroom soup contest winner above shitake mushrooms—a mushroom i cannot identify—asian mushroom dumpling soup (flavored with star anise, cinnamon, ginger, shallot)
