Hello. I’m planning to visit Maine this August and would like to forage for blueberries and mushrooms (yes, I know how to ID both). After much googling, the only area I’m coming up that appears to be best for that is Cherryfield. Is that correct? I don’t want to go to a “you pick” farm, I want to go hiking in and picking blueberries (like I used to growing up in Eastern Europe). I have also looked at land locked salmon fishing, and it appears that East Grand Lake was the top recommendation. Is that also a good area for foraging? I will be camping, not staying in hotels. Thank you!!
