Aaron Hilliard of the Kitsap Mycological Society, takes us on a walk in the forest to see what kind of wild mushrooms are growing trailside. He helps to identify several types of great edible mushrooms that you can forage for yourself. Most of them, like the Chanterelles and Hedgehog mushrooms, are easy to identify and possible growing in the forest near you. Explanation of the habitat, and features of each mushroom, helps you to really see how to tell the different mushrooms apart.
This video was shot just before the area was hit by a sub-arctic freeze. Some of the mushrooms, like Pacific Golden Chanterelles, will probably be done growing for the year. On the other hand, Winter Chanterelles and Hedgehogs can continue to grow thru the rest of winter.

We will not accept any responsibility for negligence or accidental ingestion of poisonous mushrooms or plants. These videos are not intended to be a definitive field guide, but rather a starting point to become familiar with habitat, Everyone is encouraged to do their own studies, acquire literature or internet resources to safely and confidently identify wild foods before they eat them. When eating a new wild mushroom, it is advised to start with only a small amount, and make sure that it is fresh and that it is cooked thoroughly. Some mushrooms do not agree with certain individuals, and this is typically discovered on a case-by-case basis. Even the most edible of mushrooms contain compounds that can be tough for the human digestive tract to handle. Some “edible” species have small amounts of certain toxins that will easily break down with cooking. Fungi contains a molecule known as chitin that is the same thing that makes the exoskeleton of shellfish so hard, and cannot be broken down by the human digestive system, so it is another good reason to thoroughly cook mushrooms. All the ideas expressed in the comments should be taken with a large grain of salt. I don’t think there is any other field of study or science that has more misinformation being shared so freely and boldly. Mushroom Wonderland and Aaron himself have no opinion and neither encourage nor discourage the use of mushrooms containing mind-altering compounds. These mushrooms contain powerful chemicals and should be treated with a high level of responsibility. Any video topics on the habitat, natural distribution, and morphological features of psychoactive mushrooms portrayed on this channel are purely for scientific and educational purposes.

We found hundreds and hundreds of hedgehogs Tuesday here in Croatia. We had to ignore them after filling our basket...so many! Chanterelles were on their last legs. We lived most of our lives in Saskatchewan so foraging here is a special treat. I am grateful for your amazing content!

This last Fall was my first time hunting for edible mushrooms. These videos have been immensely helpful and informative. After a few forays into my Sonoma County coastal areas I have seen and foraged lots (for me) edible mushrooms; particularly the Yellowfoot and Hedgehogs but also a few Oyster and Pig’s Ear. 15:46 I have always loved hiking in the woods and now it is even more rewarding. Thank you!!!

Great haul man. Don't worry, no sack or pick shaming here lol. Sometimes you gotta do what you gotta do. I've used my hat, shirt, jacket, backpack and probably a few things I'm forgetting. I have a nice net bag that I'm usually good about keeping with me but stuff happens sometimes. Whatever gets the job done. Same for picking method. I don't judge. I'm kind of a clean freak so I lean toward cutting stem butts and brushing the stipe and cap before I toss it in my bag but I've also done the opposite a few times. Another great episode of Mushroom Wonderland. I look forward to each one so keepem coming please.

This is fun watching your channel I live in carbonado and it looks so similar to our woods. You give me hope I didn't know you could go out at this time. These are kind of leftover fall mushrooms. I used to get varpas under the cottonwoods every year. I usually boil them first and then cook them in a with onions and garlic and bake them like a crispy stuff you have with bread.

Found an edible and sure it’s an agaricus but can’t find any confirmation with the features (partial veil, stipe etc.) is there a way I could send you photos to get help identifying it?

Found Trametes versicolor, Auricularia auricula-judae, Fomes fomentarius and others i could not idntify. By the way, how doyou train your dog for truffle hunting? Cam you give me a reliable source?
