Haven't posted in a long time. I've been selling tons of moss and my evenings are spent packing everything for shipment. Hopefully I will start tonight and continue for a while...
Today I hiked for hours collecting fresh moss for one of my top customers - Summer, a woman from Hawaii. Aloha, Summer! I am so grateful to her for her order. Not just because it was a good order, but because I found "Moss Heaven" while I was collecting. It's a huge area simply covered with the most perfect cushions I have ever seen. And not just cushions up there - Reindeer lichens and fabulous mood (frog) moss too! I had already collected about 200 pieces from other areas so I didn't take too much but it was a great way to finish off my gathering today.
On the way back down to the house, I saw some red on the ground - bright red. I walked over and found the most outrageous red mushrooms I've ever seen. I didn't have my camera but took not of the area and I'm heading back tomorrow for some pictures so look for them tomorrow!
This blog is about my travels and hiking as I collect mosses for my terrariums for selling. I hike nearly every evening. The 600 acres surrounding my home are ever changing. Every hike brings a new discovery. If you are reading this, you most likely love mosses. You might design terrariums or vivariums. Or perhaps you just enjoy reading about life in the woods. If you are interested in my mosses, drop me a line or check me out on Ebay. My Ebay user name is pinchingpennies4now.
