    Wonderfully informative and very encouraging! I think your words, "The birds aren't complaining, the animals aren't complaining, the plants aren't complaining... so I'm not going to complain either..." will stick with me forever! Wise words and a lovely positive attitude to have. You're a blessing.

    Hey Adam I’ve been watching your videos for over a year now and I just want to express my appreciation to you for making these videos! Last year you inspired me to go out side and look for any mushrooms I could find. I am very thankful to you for everything I have learned. Last year I sent you an email and you responded and that really meant a lot to me! I hope that you continue to teach your passion and that someday we can connect!

      Awesome!! I live in northeast Ohio in ashtabula county , I'm hooked. I'm going to be out in the woods every week in 2019 . We've had a mild wet winter. N it's almost April now! In 2 weeks my woods will be alive , n the amish cut down alot of trees for furniture so everything that's left is dead elms n poplars, n massive oaks n maples n black cherry n alot more that I cant list. I'm stoked.

    I'm in the Denver area as well and I have shaggy parasols that grow in my front yard in the city when conditions are right. I spent considerable time identifying this species including performing a spore print to make sure it was, in fact, edible and not poisonous. Now that I know they are safe, I eat them whenever they pop up. But, also, before cutting the mushroom, I like to tap the top a few time to encourage any spores in the cap of the mushroom to fall to the ground and re-inoculate the area that I am picking from. Thank you for sharing your wonderful foraging trip with us. What fun! :-)

    Hi Adam,
    I've been hunting morels for 30 years and have always enjoyed eating them. However, the past two years they have made me very ill. I thought the first time was possibly from maybe getting a false morel in the batch, although I highly doubted that. Last spring my wife and I found almost 100 on our first trip out. We cleaned them and fried them in butter like I always do. Later that night I became extremely ill again. My wife had no ill effects. Have you heard of a person's body chemistry changing in time to cause something like this? The illness was so bad that I'm extremely afraid to try them again. By the way, keep up the good work. I love your videos.

    I see that there is Alliaria (garlic mustard) growing with them - delicious! I know it's considered an invasive pest in NA, though that amazes me, since it's not a perennial, and it's so good. We treasure it here in France.

I truly appreciate that you seem to really care about the land and the earth, and about conservation and leaving some behind for the others, and for the species to repropagate. I have noticed that while we both live in Pennsylvania we have different names for many of plants that you come across. I know you use the scientific name (of which I am not normally familiar) but even when you use the common name, it is not normally the name that plant has in my area or the name I am familiar with.
    Anyhow I love your videos and hope you continue to make them! You are great!

    Watching ahead of the 2019 season, losing my private property orchard this year to the owner whose heath is on the mend, so can't be sore about it (found decent amount there last year), but my other areas last year were horrible. Never heard of them coming up around Black Cherry, will have to keep an eye out for that. I have a few areas of Tulip Poplars, hopefully they produce better this year, and will just have to get out there and hike and search! Southwestern PA.

    I'm just watching this. Getting me all amped up for the incoming morel season. I'm in SW Michigan here, very similar in environment. Just quite a bit more wet in most places. Still very similar. Makes me excited!

    I think this is the "freshest" video I have seen from you :) I am hoping that you will do a video on which and why Mushrooms should be cooked. Maybe how to store them too? I love eating them raw but I have only had store bought Mushrooms. I love your videos because they show me that I'll never go hungry if I learn all (some:P) of these identifications you've shown us. Thank you!

    Incredible morel harvest. This was my first year hunting them, but I managed to find a half dozen small (grape sized) ones. I left some behind to see if they'd grow on, but when I went back two days later, they hadn't grown and were too far gone. I did find some nice small dryad's saddles and a great ramp patch though (ramps are pickling as I write). I've always loved mushrooms, but my hunting has been limited to "pinkies" and puffballs. Since I retired last summer I've had more time to hike in the woods up here north of you in Crawford County. Found lots of chickens and a few hens of the woods last year. I really want to make on of your outings sometime. Love the videos!

    I was lucky enough to at least FIND some for the first time...BUT they were eaten alive by critters. Being a super newbie it was fun and we had a great time. I took my grand daughter with me (only one of them as I was baby sitting and other was in school). She was so excited 😆. She’s only 4 and really didn’t know why she was excited, she was just feeding off my energy which made it so cute to see. Maybe next year I’ll be early enough to beat the critters especially since I know where to go back to! Thank you for all you share and helping me at least be brave enough to try. You’re always so encouraging and that helps a lot, especially when you’re new to it.
    Thanks again! Blessings always ~Lisa

    Wish I could get a good book on every thing you tell us. The best mushroom collection I had was in southern Michigan. Got a grocery bag full in no time. Made vegetable soup with them .Oh wow it was good!

    Read your morel article then this was in my TH-cam recommendations. One of the few times my recommendations in TH-cam got something right! Great vid and good job on your morel article also. Thanks for your time!

    • @jcbizthekey

      In your article you mentioned drying out morels to rehydrate and use them later, how do you do this effectively?

    @xseedlingx 6 ปีที่แล้ว +12

    Great finds Adam! I'm still yet to find the elusive morel. Every time I watch your videos I try and compare the growth stages of vegetation so I have an idea when to hunt since I'm a bit more north east from you lol.. Good luck in the future!

    Hey Adam thanks for sharing your morel experience, in our region (Wisconsin) it was slow and very late compared to previous years but we still got some nice morels due to diligent hunting :)

    I gotta say dude, if you don't have a PHD in this field, YOU SHOULD! No one covers this material as well as you do, period! Heck, I thought I knew about Chantrelle's, until I watched your video on them. Extremely educational.

  • @LavenderLori406

    Digging the Benji Hughes song! I've seen him perform more than once and always enjoy his tunes. Y'all should definitely check out his first album "a love extreme".
    I can't wait until mid March when the Morel Madness begins!!!!

    Last year while searching the edge of the parking lot of Feather Falls Casino in Oroville Calif. I found about a dozen prime Yellow Morels growing at the backside of the lot under a hedge of an unknown variety to me that was planted along the fence line. This surprised the hell out of me since I had never seen Morels of any kind in this area before! A nice surprise it was too! Yummy!

  • @billmonczka7197

    Good morning Adam. Love you videos. Your comment about people not picking along the trail, most people don't know what they are. You wouldn't believe how many times I will be out with my kids foraging and they don't get what we are doing. They don't believe it. They don't know they are editable. My kids can tell you what's good. Not good. Different between the different fiddleheads, mushrooms and how to find leeks. Teachers at schools are blown away..
