    Yesterday I asked my 4-yr-old nephew if he wanted to watch Winnie the Pooh, and he said “no thanks, let’s watch this video about mushrooms!” And proceeded to stay GLUED to your video. You’re one of his favorite channels and he wants to be just like you when he grows up. Thanks for putting your videos out here for him (and us!) to enjoy!

    Adam, the way you explain things..how interconnected each species is...is incredible! Thank you for these educational videos. I'm a forager/wildcrafter in Maine who suffers with late-stage Lyme Disease and coinfections. I don't typically see things through the "lens of Lyme", but I couldn't help but make the connection to our large Hemlock forests and our state (Maine) having the highest incidence of Lyme Disease in the country. Eastern Hemlock - Liverwort - Goldenthread Fungus - Deer Truffle - Deer Mice/Squirrels - Deer Ticks - Lyme Disease. Rather than curse the Hemlocks, I choose to treat my clothes and gear once a month with Permethrin, continue to forage, and thank God I can live each day in this beautiful place.

Harvested my first trumpets and Amanita Amerirubescens this past weekend. So exciting!!! I've found what I identified as turkey tails. Someone else said they probably weren't so I didn't risk it. First wild mushroom I harvested was ganoderma tsugae. I am definitely hooked on mushroom hunting. Goes well with my wild game meals!

    Holy shizzle, Adam. You're a bloody treat, is what you are, sir. You (as is your message) are intoxicating. I can watch and listen to you expound and wax excitedly, looking forward to the "how best to cook with deer truffles," learn too late they are not really edible, and still finish the video and not hate you for the teasing.
    I will say this: We are just on the other side of Lake Erie from you, in SE Michigan... and yet our forests look nothing like yours there in Pennsylvania. I am envious. Your woods there are so clear and clean, seemingly free of the understory invasives we have like buckthorn and honeysuckle and Russian olive and (gasp/cringe) multiflora rose. Gads. Climate change hasn't yet brought the nasty kudzu I grew up with in Georgia this far north, but when it does, I feel certain Washtenaw Co. Michigan will be one of its first strongholds.

    Thank you for your videos. I’ve recently gotten very interested in mushrooms. You are awesomely knowledgeable about mushrooms and trees and you are pleasantly friendly. The Latin is a tongue twister for me though, I have to say, but I can learn it, especially watching you 😉 I live in Oregon at the edge of one of the biggest forest in the USA. Just on my property I’ve found a huge variety of mushrooms but I haven’t eaten any of them because I don’t know them. I just started this fall looking around and it’s so beautiful and interesting. Walking around in the woods is a bit magical. It can be hard in the summer, as the undergrowth around here is about 5-7 feet tall and very thick in some places. I tried to use mushroom identification apps, but I find them mostly useless. The names of the same mushroom often changes if you change the angle of the camera or move the mushroom around. It frustrating. I have found the deadly Death Cap here (I don’t remember the Latin name of course) so I’m extremely cautious to eat any mushrooms until I will get better at identifying them. I just started learning about them, it’s alright if it takes time, because there is nothing I love more than hanging out in the woods with the trees and yes my dog. I do have a dog but she is 13 years old and sick. I’m preparing for the hard part of us parting ways in this life. My friends say, (not that it matters because I love my dog even if no one would notice) that she won the lottery by finding me almost 13 years ago, so I feel good in my heart that I gave her good life, although it’s short compared to humans. I will still have the woods which I have become to love greatly and I can spend the rest of my life learning about mushrooms. I do know that we have in Iceland where I’m from, a mushroom (among other ones) called “Berserkjar Sveppur” (Sveppur =Mushroom) which the term to Go Berserk comes from. I have no idea what kind of mushroom that is, since I never looked for it, I defiantly didn’t want to go berserk. I’ve never known anyone there to have eaten it either. People there seem to be wary of that mushroom, but evidently it’s not a lethal one. Long time ago I used to forage a mushroom there that looked kinda like a big portobello mushrooms. I forgot what the mushroom was called, but it was pretty good.

    Your knowledge and presentation of your material shows you are very very well prepared . I appreciate this, as I'm a little bit older now. It really makes me want to take the mycology classes that are available here in Northern California. thank you

    On account of his superhuman intelligence toward species names, something tells me he found magic mushrooms on the way

    We have a Lagotto Romagnolo that really love to dig for and eat the Deer Truffles where we live in southern Norway. Have never seen any other fungi growing on the truffles, but will make sure to pay attention now 🙂

    I have learned so much from your videos. I am also from western PA (venango county) and went on my first mushroom hunt yesterday. I was able to apply some of the things I’ve learned from your videos right away. I just want to say thank you and to keep up the great work.

    • @davidmartin533
      @davidmartin533 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      Also I was wondering what books you would recommend for mushroom hunting. Would you recommend Peterson’s field guid to mushrooms? If you could let me know that would be great or I’m sure the community would love a video in this. Thanks :)
