Everett Mushroom Calendar
Everett sits in the Puget Lowland and a damp, maritime-influenced climate — about 40.2 inches of rain a year, most of it falling in the cool months from fall into spring. The ground warms and reaches early fruiting potential around March, by which point the average last frost (Mar 24) has usually passed. Activity builds again once the wetter weather returns around October. The first frosts around Nov 2 eventually close the main season, though hardy cool-season species hang on.
