After some rain will make the forests wet, nature will give us natural foods. Coming to Vinh Cuu (Dong Nai) this season, visiting the Melaleuca forests, looking down at the Melaleuca leaves, we will see the mushroom cells emerging from the leaves. The clusters of melaleuca leaves fall into a carpet of rotten soil and become a fertile humus layer, creating conditions for the melaleuca to grow into a fungus, which the people here call melaleuca mushroom.

This particular fungus only appears within a month or so. If you want to eat more, you have to wait until the beginning of the rainy season next year. That is why connoisseurs of melaleuca mushrooms always take advantage of the time to pick them up in time. Unused melaleuca mushrooms are carefully dried by people and packed into packages to be eaten gradually during the year.
