This is a wildly underrated channel. This is great work and your other videos that go into more detail are very informative with great camera angles to highlight their features. Thank you for all the information.
The Weeping Milk Cap (Voluminously Latext Milky) is one of my absolute favorites stuffed and baked! On its own sauteed, I am not a great fan, but it's FANTASTIC stuffed and baked. It has a nice, firm meaty texture and a nutty flavor.

You might have mentioned the Reishi is reportedly highly medicinal and therapeutic, and is often dried, powdered, and added to coffee. When mixed with coffee the Reishi is called by its other name, Ganoderma. There are several brands of this beverage available commercially, and they all taste quite good. This is one of the better mushroom videos I have seen, and you deserve sincere thanks for your good work.
素晴らしいビデオ。キノコの非常に素晴らしいコレクション。 新しい友達です。自然とキノコが好きです。 スペインからのご挨拶 Great video. A very nice collection of mushrooms. I'm a new friend. I like nature and mushrooms. Greetings from Spain
Really interesting. We had a hot dry September so I didn’t see as many mushrooms as I sometimes do. Now one of our favorite autumn/winter activities is taking a fungi walk in our neighborhood or at a campground ⛺️.
Great. Thank you. I love that you wait a few seconds before putting the name up so it's like an identification quiz. Only thing I wonder about is the turkey tail comment "some would disagree that it is medicinal". Turkeytail is the most studies mushroom in the world! It is prescribed by doctors in Japan. Anyhow, I could go on and on. Love your channel!
That's a good assortment of mushrooms! It's nice seeing your namesake, the Old Man of the Woods, lol. And all those Oysters! Have fun with your fungi this fall!
great video, I like that you only talk in the beginning of the video, that way you get to experience the sounds of the forest as if you were foraging yourself!
Jian-Yang! I got diarrhea From those mushrooms! Sorry for the joke, as a fellow forager I absolutely LOVE your content. Please, please, PLEASE keep it up! Much love from Wisco. Cant wait for Morel and Pheasantback season
Love your videos guys hope you make a lot more! By the way, at 11:41, that would be sarcodon imbricatus, an edible but poor tasting mushroom, not hydnum repandum.
Blogger Old Man, can i ask? Why you need to check out tha back side of the mushroom,? How would you id if its edible or toxic one? What can you say about wood ear or black fungus? Tips plsss, & thank you
🌸 I know you have done a lot of vids on mushrooms but can you do vid on associated trees Because I am not familiar with where to find edible mushrooms ✨
I'm a fan, I also hunt mushrooms near the DC area. Would love to see some of the more unusual species covered in more detail sometime in another video. Thanks for your content!
I just found your channel TODAY! (subbed!) WONDERFUL information about all these mushrooms! That said, do you forage wild edible plants for food or medicine? I'd LOVE to see you do FORAGING for WILD PLANTS! As much as you're in the woods for mushrooms, I'm certain you have a wealth of knowledge on the wild plants. I hope you stack up a few of those puppies!! lol Thank you for sharing your knowledge. *Blessings in ALL You do and Gratitude!*
Very good video! You guys are out there in the field showing us many species we only otherwise see in the Audubon Field Guide pics! I was going to subscribe, but saw I already had(!) Say, wanna hear about the neat Stinkhorn I found last week in Missouri?
@@OldManoftheWoods I met a new friend that has 9 acres here in the Missouri Ozarks by Lesterville. We actually wanted to look for a clear spot to use the telescope later to view Jupiter's moons & Saturn which have been huge/bright all summer and were walking an old log road. I've been able to turn my friends with land into amateur shroom hunters - they love it once they start to realize the variety & abundance of mushrooms underfoot! So his cat had followed us. We got short wiffs of a stinking odor. I sat down for a break and smelled an odor when he & the cat approached. All I could think of was that she was in heat again & emitting a foul odor(?) So, after a couple of minutes I get up to hike again and see a round orange object out in front of me. I make my way to it and it's just debris...then as I'm heading back to join my friend I happen to look down and see the strangest-looking mushroom ever (I'd only seen pics in my Audubon guide) poking up out of the leaves - a white horn shape about 9 or 10" tall with vulva sac at the base...the middle 1/3rd of the stalk was a beautiful crimson red color and the upper 1/3rd was dark olive green with a texture like tapioca pudding. I knew it was a stinkhorn but did not have my field guide with me. Later I looked in my Audubon guide and saw the exact likeness (#692 Elegant Stinkhorn) and that the green part was the spore-bearing 'stinky' area. This mushroom does not shed its spores - it uses the stink to attract insects which disseminate the spores away from the fruiting body. How neat the way nature works! (Note: Peterson guided did not show this stinkhorn.) We've had a pretty wet summer and now the boletes and suillus are huge and everywhere. Fewer chants than last year. Last June my mossy back yard (goes up to local mountain of oak, hickory, pine, etc.) was a blazing eruption of light golden chants everywhere! I was actually using binoculars to spot new eruptions and keep tabs on others so I could beat Mr. Tree Rat Squirrel to them before he ate on them. LOL! Last observation. 2 years ago before I started my interest in foraging mushrooms I did take some pics of 2 species by the house. Later I identified as Old Man Strobilo and in a shady corner Amanita Caesare. (This is a beautifully-colored mushroom from egg to cap unfolding - the hues of yellow to scarlet - awesome! And very good edible I've read.) Last year neither species was observed. This year my yard is full of Strobilos and the Caesares came up in the same spot as 2 years ago...but have not reappeared since July. So, I'm wondering about the cyclical nature of some mushroom species having a periodicity of skipping years? Maybe it's just normal and natural? Have yet to find the dreaded Jack O'Lantern that every mushroom looks like according to all the sources/guides(!) ;-) However, I feel it in my near future that I will find my first Hen of the Woods! Hope so. But we have a real problem with wild hogs around here, and I'm sure they're eating up a lot of the mushrooms they can smell & find! :( Keep up the good work you 2 are doing and I need to review/bookmark that one website you like that's very interactive and scholarly!
@@boboala1 thanks for sharing! the stink horn is indeed a very unforgettable mushroom. Most mushrooms will come back every year, though you may find them at a different section of a trail or a few weeks earlier/later. Skipping years is also not uncommon, but it is always good to remember and go back to check your old spots. You probably will see them again!
Catnip is a really good mosquito repellent so you dont need to spray those nasty chemicals all over you. Just rub a little catnip all over and youre good to go.
Turkey tail is definitely medicinal. In some countries like Japan this mushroom is the 2nd most utilized organism to help treat cancers. Sometimes ppl in the 3rd and 4th stages of cancer have achieved remission and this mushroom has saved cancer patients who are up in their 80's. These folks then went on to pass away by something other than cancer. Science backs this up completely. Idk who states Trametes versicolor is not medicinal but if they did their research they would learn otherwise.
aimaem Sukjai what is the Gill? That a lot of look a like . I love to forage, but I’m an idiot. Went to emergency once for consuming wild mushrooms that grew in my yard. Didn’t hurt my friend but nearly kill me! Just couldn’t breathe and kept puking.
Yes, but be careful to not mistake them for their look-alike, Jack-o-lantern, which is poisonous. To start with the toxic Jack-o-lanterns look much like the deliciously edible Chanterelles, but... (1)The Jack-o-lanterns grow in big tight colonies, while the Chanterelles grow singly or at the most in groups of usually no more than 4 or 5. (2)Jack-o-lanterns have delicate gills which descend down the stem, while Chanterelles have thicker, tougher ridges which descend down the stem. (3)Jack-o-lanterns glow in the dark and have a little dome in the middle of the cap, while Chanterelles do not. (4)Jack-o-lanterns' inner flesh is orange, while Chanterelles' inner flesh is white.
The mushrooms old man of the wood. If the cap is grey and the stem is white is that edible. The top part kind of look like freckles. But it feels bumpy
I love looking at weird mushrooms. There, I said it and I stand by it. Thanks for a great vid.

Awesome! Thanks! It is amazing how many edible mushrooms there are!
Good info. I love foraging wild mushrooms. In the winter I love growing them. Nice video.
I think your Hydnum repandum it's a Sarcodon sp. An excellent work, apreciate it! Great Chanel with great info, thanks
You are correct
Boletes are pretty tricky for referencing, thanks for putting their names in the video.
Great video thank you for showing so many different angles, great finds!
Excellent video and content. Thanks for putting forth the effort.
That's an eastern box turtle at the end. Love your videos, always thoughtfully done.
Like the precautionary intro. Thoughtful.👌
Wow that mole was so cute
Thanks for showing us
You are brilliant. Thanks for the info. so helpful.

@@OldManoftheWoods what this mushroom benefits?
Mushrooms are not a fungi, fungi eat at stuff, mushrooms are the best
Fantastic video. Great coverage of main identifying features. I have found most of them, but never a hedgehog -- yet! :-)
Very interesting thanks for sharing your knowledge about those mushrooms.
Buy I'll it by by jgk no

great video, I like that you only talk in the beginning of the video, that way you get to experience the sounds of the forest as if you were foraging yourself!
Great vid .wow you saw mr turtle .an a cool squirrel. An a mole too .awesome .
and getting to see different wild animals is such a bonus of wild foraging!
Wonderful vid!!❤

Thanks Brendan! and I do plan to devote individual videos to most of these species…eventually!
I got unreasonablely happy at the apple mushrooms.
I found the weeping milk caps and chanterelles in greenwood SC 👍

Amazing mushroom i love so much
Is that red bole edible?
The weirdest mushroom I've ever seen at 5:12.
Thank you very much
Hey guys, wondering if you are going to keep making content? We need more good mushroom content like yours on TH-cam! Wishing you all the best
We do want more and more 😂❤❤
Would the apple bolete be alright in pies?
All kind of mushrooms in this video are edible?
No, some of them are poisonous one of which is amanita
Looks like you are finding these in relatively dry areas. Are you still able to find mushrooms without weeks of rain?
MD is not that dry & I always pick somewhere near rivers.
Thank you!

Have you ever tried the Butter Boletes? Now I'm confused if I have the Chicken Fat or Butter or if they are the same🤷🏽♀️
What kind of insect repellent do you use?
why do all the books I use to identify rooms say to stay away from polypores that stain blue?
Here in NC, chicken in the wood's what do they look like?
Thank you for sharing. That's awesome!
Thanks!
Catnip is a really good mosquito repellent so you dont need to spray those nasty chemicals all over you. Just rub a little catnip all over and youre good to go.
Very nicely done!
Why did you say allegedly medicinal for the turkey tail? There are numerous studies on the medicinal values of NPK
Great video 👍
What book guides do you own/recommend?
What state are you in? I live in Indiana and I don't think I've ever seen a bolete.
What's a good book for Michigan foraging?
cool very nice collection didn't know most of them lol
Thanks and now you know :)
can you eat the mole or?
Old man of the woods must be your favourite?? :)
thank you for this very informative video!!!

Amazing. I found the false version the other day (it's spring) but i see these mushrooms all the time. Thanks for the info.
What's this you spray on your hand?
I love your channel brother.
When you showed the Chestnut Bolete I got nervous because it looks a little similar to autumn skullcap 😬
Would like to see something on Lactarius corrugis if you find any!
Red Chanterelles are edible mushrooms?
yes they are

Great video!...have harvested all but 3 that don't grow around here...and 3 disagree w me....
This makes me want to go outside.
Thak you...
Honey Bees are so important. 👍🏻
I just bought the mushrooms of north eastern America. It’s a little on the big side too be lugging around.
Or maybe you can take many pics and bring some specimens home to investigate :)
This is my companion, and has been for years. The Audubon Society field guide to North American mushrooms

Thank you for nice video.
Muy bueno saludos desde Uruguay
I love eat 🍄🍄
7:32 Those gills look so beautiful
Did you find all of these in one day? What part of the country are you in?
They were found in the greater DC area over the past three months.
Where is the general area? Great variety of species there!
In MD and VA
Nice colour mshroommm
I found both of them a lot.

While not poisonous, many of these are not good to eat...in particular the brackets and polypores
Miss your content, you should come back to us
Did you eat the A jacksonii? I'd be too scared.
I did because I was quite sure, and I tried different ways of cooking them. so I can tell you don't try them, as they are very mediocre…
I am glad to know I'm not missing anything. Thanks, keep up the good work.
I eat them every year. Not a lot of taste but plentiful. Just be careful when identifying.
Wait, what? A gilled bolete?
which ones are the magic ones that get you high?
