I went mushroom hunting today for the first time with my son, and we found some tree ear mushrooms around the Darby Creek are in columbus. Does anybody have...
Seth. Wood ear is not much better than air. It's rather tasteless. Most of the folks I know that use it do so in soups. It adds little except texture, and it...
I cross referenced my find with many different sources to make sure I knew what I had, and most said that there really isn't anything else like the tree ear or...

Yes, two called "witches butter". one is typically more yellow (Tremella lacunosa) and one more orange (Dacrymyces palmatus) they are equally as tasteless as...
Yeah, definately not either one of those, although I guess those 2 are somewhat edible as well. I can send you a picture, I actually just found a 3 ft. stick...

Yes, same species, older name. Latin names,although a bit frustrating, describe the species of the mushroom. In this case Lut means yellow and escens is a...
Great, thanks for all your help! I would love to go on an outing but unfortunately I have to work weekends and I am very busy in the spring summer and fall...

I actually asked one of the park rangers I guess and he said he thought they had mushroom hunting in the spring at the Batelle Darby Creek Metro park but that...
Seth, That's probably an organized hunt for public relations purposes. Lots of guys hunt morels, but I'd wager that after a formal, organized hunt for...
In response to my e-mail, Bruce Dudley fro Metro Parks said "Seth, the only place in Metro Parks we permit mushroom hunting is the wildlife area at Battelle...
The next few days they are calling for a tad warmer temps. Hopfully this should bring out some suprises. So get out there and take a walk an injoy the...

I haven't been out to look yet but I'll bet there are some Black Morels out there to be had. I would love to hear some reports here from our area. I am in East...
If I was a betting man, I'd take that bet. Still too early in my opinion. The skunk cabbage isn't even up here yet. Maybe after the last ball goes through the...
