Probably because of the amount of rain in the woods around Penland huge variety of Mushrooms grow here. Rumor has it that Lucy Morgan, the founder of Penland School of Crafts, used mushrooms as a table center piece for an important dinner. I can only guess that the guests must have been enchanted by this creative setting.
While hiking I took some pictures to share with you.

I'm so envious of your time at Penland. Such a magical place!
ReplyDeleteOne year for Halloween, I had a party for Wes and her friends and I brought in mushrooms form the yard to add to my table setting. Some of the moms talked about me for quite a while!
Tracey, you would love this place. I need to take some barn pictures for you.
