Forage For Truffles In The Forest With Black Tie Tours In Oregon

Adventures abound in the Beaver State, with untold wonder around each and every turn. From traversing old-growth forests and climbing rock walls in the high desert to surfing in the Pacific Ocean and kayaking along resplendent rivers, Oregon is *the* place for adventure-seekers in the PNW. Because just when you think you’ve seen and done it all (although here, that’s darn-near impossible), Oregon will surprise you once again with something you never even considered. For instance, have you ever gone foraging in Oregon? What about foraging for truffles in Oregon? What about a foraging tour through old-growth forests that ended in a truffle-centric picnic lunch in Oregon? Whether you answered “yes” to one, none, or all of the above, going on a truffle-hunting adventure with Black Tie Tours is an only-in-Oregon experience you’ll want to put at the top of your bucket list!

These dirt-covered orbs might not look like much, but they are literally more valuable and precious than gold.

These are truffles, hand-harvested from the Oregon wilds. And you, too, can forage for these precious gems, with Black Tie Tours.

On these two-hour truffle hunts, you'll traipse through Oregon's gorgeous old-growth forest, letting Stefan and Ella guide the way.

This is Ella, a canine with a nose for truffles. While pigs are most commonly used for truffle hunting, dogs can be trained to sniff out truffles, too.

Truffle hunting is a must for all Oregon foodies and adventure-seekers. During the excursion, you'll learn about all things truffles, including how to differentiate between varieties, how to care for these rare culinary treasures, and how to cook with these delicious little nuggets of umami gold.

(And trust us: they are worth their weight in gold! Truffles are one of the most expensive foods on the planet. The most prized varieties can cost well over $4,000 per pound!)

These are the freshest, most incredible truffles you'll ever have. Talk about a farm to table dining experience! Or should we say, *forest* to table...

Adding truffles to your culinary repertoire is a surefire way to take your cooking to the next level. And what better way to do that than with truffles foraged and hand-harvested right here in Oregon?

Truffle tours are available based on the truffle season, which in Oregon is usually January through March. April and May are also possible, depending on the year.

Once you've gone foraging for truffles in Oregon, we guarantee you'll be hooked -- and back again!
