Tuber brumale is not native to or intentionally cultivated in North America, it was reported to have been accidently introduced into British Columbia in 2014 and North Carolina in 2020. We review strategies for limiting their impact on truffle cultivation.

      Hi Alana!

      My dog Sniffy and I live in Vermont and have been training but have not experienced an actual hunt. I messaged you via your website as well. Maybe we can help. I would classify us as semi-trained!

        Another consideration might be the type of truffle you are trying to cultivate. For example, melanosporum apparently prefers an open canopy with sunlight while aestivum/uncinatum apparently fruits best in shade. So topping the trees might lead to more lateral branching and more shade.

        I see your post is from April so….what did you decide?

        Hope all is well,

        Lisa
