One of the things I like about hackberry is it's one of the few wild foods that contain protein, fat, and carbs. Foraging trifecta. Plus they'll stay on the trees and be edible through most of the winter.

I like this Herrington guy. I found the background music very distracting but got through the video okay.

Loving the video. But, I can't hardly hear you over the music.

This video was great. I will be waiting for your next video.

Excellent information.

Is the survival course still running?

Link to the Morel mushroom episode? Thanks!

great video but could you think about cutting out the background music, its just too much,

It’s hard to hear him over the music. The video is moving a lot also.

West Tennessee seems to be asleep on every level. History, Plant and Flower Info, Resources around Outdoors, there little to nothing on KZfaq and even Internet. It is all East Tennessee, a totally different topography and all other subjects vs West Tennessee.

Man this would be such a great video if that silly music wasn’t playing and louder than the gentleman trying to teach.

Thumbs all the way down on his attitude towards mushrooms. Turkey Tails, Lion's Mane, Morels, Oysters, Russulas (the ones he was squatting in front of), Chantrelles, Boletes, Giant Puffballs, Cordyceps, Maitake and Reishi; all beneficial and common in Tennessee. If you're in a survival situation and you ignore sources of beta glucans, vitamin D2, triterpenoids, etc, because of the low caloric content, you're probably ngmi. There are only two deadly species of mushroom in Tennessee. Amanita phalloides and a. bisporigera. Death Cap (rare but present) and Destroying Angel (common) respectively. All of the amanita genus are easy to ID and only one species, a. muscaria is non-toxic but is psychoactive. That's the bright red and white "smurf house" mushroom. It is not a psychedelic. Most people find the psychoactive effects unpleasant. Leave the psilocybes alone. They are non-toxic but have a wide range of psychoactive potency and tripping balls when you're trying to survive in the woods costs you time better spent surviving. Learn what to avoid, learn what to forage, and enjoy looking at the rest. Err on the side of competency.
