Looking for mushroom logs
Hi I am looking for hardwood logs, especially oak or alder, for growing mushrooms. Does anyone have any tips on where to find some?

I am on the hunt for logs to inoculate as well, and have also been told that birch is a good choice.
Essentially I see this as a hunting trip to the outskirts of town (North Van, Delta, or maybe the Vancouver Ravine) to look for fallen, younger trees. I have many saws (battery electric and hand), so it's just a matter of finding a likely location.
Would you be interested in such a scavenger hunt sometime? Depending on the size of the log(s) you want, I can also get a trailer.
