Where I used to live in southern Ontario I used to pick every spring a good crop of morels. I have no memory of seeing these Velvet Foot species. It was a climax uphill mixed wood stand of red and white pine and sugar maple and beech. We had no elm. And all the morels I picked there were black capped. Every year I would disperse pieces of several morels in the hope of "reseeding" the soil. They never failed to show up. But now I live farther north and only once have I found morels. But the Chanterelles and King Boletes more than make up for my loss. Thanks for this video.
I'm from Germany and i've never heard of a strong association of either velvet foot or morell with elm trees. The latter grows predominantly with ash trees here (fraxinus excelsior).
Good stuff! More people need to know these things, so thanks for sharing the knowledge. Society, as a whole, is getting dumbed down because all they've ever known is grocery stores and Amazon Prime. I overheard a conversation the other day, and this person didn't know where salt came from. Knowing your land is a lost art form. Thanks again.
Salt comes from the ocean. This guy gave his bride a magic box and she over wished salt it wouldn't stop producing salt. The box made so much salt it filled their house. The husband and wife didn't know how to stop the box from making salt. The man threw it in the ocean to get rid of it and that is why the ocean is full of salt. Learned that in elementary school. No seriously I do know where salt comes from your comment reminded me of that story.
So glad I found this channel! I'm in Missouri, and have begun paying a lot more attention to the mushrooms I see on my friends property and in state parks (I live in town). I know not everything is the same here as it is where you live, but enough similarities that I find this information VERY useful. Thank you so very much!
Awesome info Adam! I’ve had a hunch the tree I’ve been finding enokis on is possibly an elm, and now I’ll be checking that spot this spring for morels! Thank you so much!!
Thanks alot Adam, I always wondered what those mushrooms were called and if they were edible...I see them all the time when walking in the woods here in Michigan and never knew what they were! BTW - thanks for all of your videos as they all contain very important information.....please keep up the great work!
Awesome video Adam thank you we enjoy all your videos but especially your mushroom ones. And my wife and I found some velvet foots yesterday and it’s also a spot we found morels. So can confirm the correlation.
Although I am in the Pacific Northwest on the Olympic Peninsula where I think we have even more varieties of mushrooms than you have. I never fail to learn things from you you certainly are a National Treasure may you never cease to be.
Nice!! I love this channel. I look forward to using this info and hopefully finding my first morels next year. I have enjoyed a few of the "beginner" mushrooms this year personally and baked about 15 loaves of pawpaw bread to share with friends and family because of this channel (this is not the only source I use, no worries). Thanks for giving me more inspiration to learn the land 🙂👍
Merry Christmas Adam 🎄 Thanks for being you. You made my year enjoyable and educated well. Wish to see more videos next year and happy mushy new year 🤗
Thanks for another excellent video! I tend to navigate by tree species and soil and leaf litter, I do notice mushrooms quite a bit, but admittedly I'm not familiar enough with most of them to really key on what they like.
Merry Christmas & a Happy New Year, Adam. Thanks, for all your hard work in bringing us this info. Someday I hope to be able to take your course on mushrooms.
Thanks for this video Adam. I have noticed this a little bit in my own experience but will definitely be looking harder for morels around these beauties now!
Another excellent video Adam! Now I know what to look for when I am out and about in our local forest habitat here in CT. Thanks & I wish you Happy Holidays! Be well! 👍👍🌲🌲🍄🍄🍄🍄
I saw Velvet Foot for the first time January 2024 , and it was the bright orange / brown that got my attention from a distance. So excited I was , so now I know where Morels are likely to be found. 😍😍.
Much love Adam! The Pacific Northwest mushroom season didn't happen this season...first season I've ever experienced without fruiting mushrooms! I mean there were only a few species of fungi growing mostly ones that grow year round! Very very sad year indeed for Washington State!
Thanks for another valuable video Adam. I have learned much from your efforts over several years now and you have helped in my becoming confident enough to successfully forage mushrooms here in the Vermont forests. The results have been very rewarding. Many delicious meals and some health promoting dual extract tinctures. And I continue to benefit from your generous sharing of your knowledge. Many Thanks !!!
Hello Adam, Are Morels also associated with Hackberries, Celtis occidentalis? Enoki in the Japanese language means Hackberry, which is where I typically find Velvet foot in the Midwest. Thank you so much for your knowledge and willingness to share this gift with others. YOU ROCK!
Yes, one of my black morel spots is in an area that contains hackberry and elm trees. Both trees do very well in fertile habitats, and fertile soils are very conducive to morel growth.
Hi Adam, I am based in the UK. Will be seeing if your method works over here in Somerset! Whether or not it does its always good to hone my tree identification skills and learn a new species of muchroom. Thanks for a great video.
Winter mushrooms, interesting. You are an absolutely incredible naturalist; very helpful too. I will try your method. Time to get out and hike! (Indiana)
@@LearnYourLand PS. Sorry, I was that annoying microbiology prof that made the off-hand comment about Morels not being technically 'mushrooms.' My bad. It pains me to see you addressing that upfront. I feel like a heel. Sometimes I get a bit too technical for my own good. As a naturalist myself, I wish I had 1/10th your knowledge about fungi. Love your channel.
Thank you for another great video, Adam! Does this tip apply to the flammulina velutipes species growing on the west coast as well? I'm based outside of Seattle. Morels are my favorite wild mushroom. I've found some morels this past year and if this tip applies to the west coast, my morel habitats will expand since I've also found the velvet foots!
Great video Adam! I’m going to put this to the test. I’ve been seeing some enoki at my oyster spots this week. Here in central VA, most of the morels I find are near tulip poplar trees. Is that also the case for you in PA?
Love your videos: relatively shortish, concise and full of interesting and educational info. Thank you!
Love you Adam! Thanks for all the help you lend to people learning about the natural world.
Agreed
Another great video! Thanks!

You are a breath of fresh air and lovingly clear. Thank you.
This is the kind of information that I am seeking. Thank you
Hi Adam!💙🌎🎄…I’m still out there looking for mushrooms even in the winter…thanks to you teaching me❤️ Merry Christmas
You are amazingly well-spoken. I enjoy your reports
Good stuff! More people need to know these things, so thanks for sharing the knowledge. Society, as a whole, is getting dumbed down because all they've ever known is grocery stores and Amazon Prime.

where salt comes from is a great study and history lesson too...
Salt comes from the ocean. This guy gave his bride a magic box and she over wished salt it wouldn't stop producing salt. The box made so much salt it filled their house.

Yaaaaaay! This better than a Christmas card.😊

Me too!
Such a great information, I'll keep an eye !! 😍🔎🍄
I'd love to see you do a video on chaga mushroom. I live in Pa and I'd love to hear your take on all the hype.
I live in the Connecticut River valley between VT&NH. We find our Morales around ash trees more often then not. Happy forging.
As always, a wonderful and helpful presentation. Thank you.

🥰😍🥰
I absolutely love your videos, Dr. H.!! You're a true ecologist, with an obvious love for mycology! Thanks!
Thank you!
I never remember what shrooms are edible, all I eat are morels. I'm gonna have a look for these. Making my mouth water. 😋
Thanks Adam. You always provide great information...
There you are! So happy to see a new video :)
Absolutely right!! Most of the spots that I harvest velvet foot have Morels in the spring.
Although I am in the Pacific Northwest on the Olympic Peninsula where I think we have even more varieties of mushrooms than you have. I never fail to learn things from you you certainly are a National Treasure may you never cease to be.

Thanks, Merry Christmas
Love your videos, you are a wealth of knowledge, you should do a video on what you carry in your backpack to help you hunt and harvest mushrooms. 👍🍄
Good to know and thank you for sharing
Very informative, thanks for the info!
Always informative thanks
Ty for this info
Thank you for this presentation.
I learn a lot from your videos!! Thank you for sharing!😊
thank you
These videos are so inspiring. Thank you for sharing this info!
Thank you! I’ve been looking forward to scouting out some morel spots here in Jersey, so this is definitely gonna help :)
Thank you for the information my friend as always.
My first experience in mushroom trip was epic, it’s the best feeling ever I don’t plan on ever stopping 😍
I saw Velvet Foot for the first time January 2024 , and it was the bright orange / brown that got my attention from a distance. So excited I was , so now I know where Morels are likely to be found. 😍😍.
Thank you Adam 😊👍
Have a Merry Christmas
Stay Safe & Warm there 🙏
God Bless You 🙏♥️

Just subscribed, finally! Very informative. Keep 'em coming. Thanks Adam 👍
Thank you!
I appreciate this video. I have difficulty identifying trees yet I'm sure I could more easily pick out some velvet foots. Thank you!!!
Merry Christmas Adam!
Much love Adam! The Pacific Northwest mushroom season didn't happen this season...first season I've ever experienced without fruiting mushrooms! I mean there were only a few species of fungi growing mostly ones that grow year round! Very very sad year indeed for Washington State!
Northern CA had a huge early fruiting of both porcini and chanterelles.
Love the content super interesting
Thanks for another valuable video Adam. I have learned much from your efforts over several years now and you

And I continue to benefit from your generous sharing of your knowledge. Many Thanks !!!
Dude I've been binge watching all your old vids and I'm so glad to see you're still making more content! Miss the hair though haha
Thanks for watching! We'll see about the hair...

This is great! I found one morel once before, and you're right... I found it in the same place in where I always find flammulina velutipes.
Thanks for the tip. I found two spots in my area with Enokis in Northern Illinois, but have failed so far to find any morels. Will try in the spring!
I recently just found some enoki at my morel patch this year. Just days before this video posted. Awesome stuff. Great info
In my part of Southern Ontario Canada morels like to grow under poplar tree groves on sandy soil.
You seem to have a lot of knowledge and a wonderful attitude! Tbh I don't care for mushroom hunting I just like listening to you talk🙂
Winter mushrooms, interesting. You are an absolutely incredible naturalist; very helpful too. I will try your method. Time to get out and hike! (Indiana)

nice, i just found a cluster yesterday walking in the woods at double rock park in MD
awesome video 📹👏

I found a bunch of velvet foot mushrooms last Fall, so I will go there tomorrow!
Hm. I find flammulina velutipes on cut beech, (barely) live beech, willow. Morels here (Switzerland) are usually said to relate to ash.
I had nice velvet foot on my dying fig tree in SE Va. Never found morels here in Smithfield Va.
Great video Adam! I’m going to put this to the test. I’ve been seeing some enoki at my oyster spots this week. Here in central VA, most of the morels I find are near tulip poplar trees. Is that also the case for you in PA?
