Abstract: Cultivating European truffles in southern British Columbia , Canada is being investigated . Research sites are located on 3 private orchards, and 1 site at the Vancouver campus of the University of British Columbia (UBC) . Sites on the private orchards have been limed and planted using hazelnuts ( Corylus avellana) and English oaks ( Quercus robur) as hosts and Tuber melanosporum and T. aestivum as their fungal partner . These trees have been in the field for 1 - 3 growing season. The site at UBC is currently being limed in preparation for a spring 2009 planting . All sites were acidic andrequired large amounts of lime to adjust the soil pH . This project reports on the current status on this project .
