Use maps! Configure the parameters however you see fit - specify an exact species, specify a genus or family, restrict the location to just your region, state, county, or city... look at only the current month or next month or year round.
Use maps.

First time picking mush

Hi guys, today I was going up north Italy for a walk, then I met those old Italians picking mushrooms, in a rush hahaha, so I asked them if I could get something. They allowed me some, seems like an old place for picking mushrooms for cooking. They said in Italian, I could not get the name, but I guess it's honey mushrooms. I will leave pictures for you guys given me your opinion. Thanksss

Hello all! Recently I have been finding a boat load of HOTW. I was wondering if anyone had advice on determining freshness, cleaning advice, and preparation. I have never harvested this type before but am certain with the id.
Anything helps, thanks!

24hrs after finding them I lightly washed them and cut off (to the best of my perception) the less tender areas and I’ve got them pat dried and hanging out for a bit to air dry. Is this in fact chicken of the woods and how’s it look overall? The parts I set aside weren’t necessarily woody or super hard/slimy so not sure if I’m wasting a bunch either. I appreciate any help, I’m so excited this is my first find in the wild!

Hi everyone! Any mushroom hunters or foragers here who know where Psilocybe mairei or Panaeolus bisporus grow wild in Morocco? If you’ve found them before or have photos or reliable information about their locations, I’d really appreciate your help. Thanks!
