Im glad you brought it up I to have been picking up trash in my state forest in ct for years. People ask me why. They say your not getting paid. My answer is that it my forest and i enjoy it in its natural state. The thing is people are greedy selfish and inconsiderate thank you
This is one of the best channels on youtube.. instead of filling his video with sponsored advertising he uses the time to encourage people to clean up nature. If even a few people take the advice it will improve nature for everyone. Thumbs up, thumbs way up.
Just wanted to say how thankful I am that you are still providing us with free content. I would have loved to take your course but it was out of my price range for the time being, I've been following you a few years and I was afraid this channel might fade away. Always a highlight of my week when one of these drops.
Really like this video, going through several types of mushrooms in the basket is great! Your enthusiasm is infectious as always! I appreciate the knowledge and enunciation in all your videos!
Hey love your videos!! Still pretty new to the channel so i'll have to keep lookin around but most of what I've seen has been of hunting and I.D. which is amazing, but I would love to see how you prepare some of the less common varieties in the kitchen! Thank you for the invaluable info!
Thanks Adam...great video....my wife and I are heading out to hunt right now...love the description of smell(dirty socks) been finding lots of black trumpets, cinabar and smooth chanterelles...although smooths are getting scarce now ....we also have been seeing quite a few of those (reef) species but have not tried them yet....you inspire us .....since I've starting looking for plants and fungi my speed as a hiker and backpacker has slowed down...too much to see...we live in the southwestern part of VA (new river valley) not too far from Blacksburg so the woods we share are very similar having hiked through PA on the AT a couple years back...take care-be safe....additional question we see a species we identified as a false chanterelle... they are bright orange(more so than the cinnabar) they have the same ridges but have a hollow stem...for the record does that sound like a false
hey man, love your videos. You are helping me expand my knowledge on mushrooms so much. Thank you for being so wise and sharing your knowledge with us.
I always enjoy your videos, not to mention learning something interesting. Thanks for mentioning picking up trash when out foraging. I do the same. I have also shared your name and channel with others.
I have a video request if you're taking any. Would you consider a video on deformation? Specifically rosecomb. I have an entire flush of chants with it. And also areas that might be contaminated or have run off and what species might take that up and become toxic. Thanks again for your videos. Always spectacular.
on my hunt this am I (believe) I've found one! Fits description in both color, shape and inviroment however it is not fluted at the ends and I do know morphology can be varied a little in any mushroom but this is my first one and I've done all my learning by myself and of course your vids so takes me a bit longer to have confidence in 100% identification. p.s it was growing very near my chanterelle patch
I hope that you do show more on the cooking of the mushrooms and the other plants you gather. Can you let me know of a app to help identify these wild plants? Thanks for sharing these video's
2020 has been a drought year for sure. I found one little bunch fruiting of crown tipped coral for this species. It must have been sucking water up hard through the tree because it was very clean but still tasted of the tree I picked it from. It surprisingly wasn't disgusting though but added a flavor dimension I have never considered before. It wasn't earthy but woody tasting. Like tasting the forest itself i guess.
Love oyster mushrooms but fried in avocado oil never animal fats that's thoughtful of you to pick up the trash from the forest, who would even trash a forest?! 0_o
I am very grateful you still release content Adam. I was very much afraid you might come to feel you gave too much away on your channel and would regret it, that you would stop putting out content. I won't get into details but please understand that what you have given has changed and actually saved my life. I have watched every single video on your channel and anything I could find on line. I would watch all the videos in your course if I could. I would love to take your course.
I met a forager a few years ago who was pulling out trash with his mushrooms. I do this now sometimes. Your inclusion of this will inspire me to be even more proactive. Thanks!
Adam weird question here, are you typically alone when you shoot these videos? Is hiking/foraging alone a valid fear in your opinion? I love to forage and normally I'm alone but sometimes I get paranoid or start to freak out about mountain lions (stupid i know) and I'm wondering if you have any tips on getting over this fear!! Thanks!! This video was wonderful.
Good idea to use an egg carton!! Didn't know we could eat Sassafras leaves. Thanks for the tip! Nice little dish you made!! Looks delish! I cannot believe people trash the woods that they selfishly enjoy. :( Good guy to pick up!! :)
Hi Adam🌞 always excited to see a new video from you! Appreciate the recipe....that's a bonus..thanks! I would love it if you came to British Columbia's Lower Mainland to do a foraging walk....or even Washington state😊🤩
A lil off topic; just wondering what bug spays you use to help avoid ticks, nat, chiggers, etc.... if any...this year we have had a bumper crop of all mushrooms in the Ozark Mountains....i recently (like within the past 3 weeks)located & began making tea from wild ganoderma curtisii(love your vid on it too); ozark golden reishi lol .... this week I’v been a lil blue; swamped in indigo Milky / the blue bleeder/Smurf’s shroom, I just pickled some ....I have found these pleurotus laevis oyster this year in northern Arkansas; I went back (gathering Mullen flowers for cough syrup)& within 2 days they had completely disappeared & ive checked again & again & still zero...I will find more lol I’m gathering wild lettuce tmw for a tincture! ✌🏼from Potter’s Poets
You are an encyclopedia of knowledge. I like the egg carton idea for carrying mushrooms. So many mushrooms here in #Indiana because if all the rain. One of the shrooms I found had the rings at base of stem. Is false turkey tail edible? Your information is highly valuable. Pretry kitchen jars! I always take a trash bag into the woods to pick up trash. Thanks
Another great video, Adam, with a delicious treat at the end. Kudos for the cleanup, too. Have you had a look at your CC subtitles? Srsly, if you need help in correcting them on your videos, let me know. The AI absolutely butchers the Latin, and sometimes even the English.
QUESTION: > can you tell us about lobster mushrooms??? I know technically its not a mushroom but I am definitely curious and I'm sure the rest who watch this channel would like to see it also. Thanks.
Hi Adam I found some oyster mushrooms growing on a dead poplar branch that was in a creek leaning against a log. The gills go down the stem and it smells like a fish type mushroom smell. Are there toxic summer oysters? I found it today August 2 2019 some single some in clusters of 2-3. Thanks brother
Thanks to your channel, I enjoyed my first boletes last year, and chicken of the woods the year before. I love mushrooms with wild garlic, and eat them by the hundreds, and like them with the blossoms still on. I put them in soups, salads, stir-fry, omelets, I even add them to fresh homemade salsa cruda. I have always been a forager, and am glad to have a good source for mushroom ID, as I only knew a couple for certain. I have also taught several homeless and low-income people to identify a number of readily available wild foods.
Thanks Adam for adding the cooking part. I think this helps us to know what to do when we get home. I lost access to my foraging area (damn subdivisions) and can't find any foraging groups here (the lady that had a group died before I could sign up) so I watch every video you have ever produced trying to learn my land.
I used to think living far enough north that all your videos were 3 weeksish out of season was a detriment, but the more I watch your videos, and the more I learn, it's becoming a great heads up on when to start looking for things.
Thank you for this presentation. It will probably be two weeks before I harvest the scapes from the garlic growing in the wild plot near my house. I haven't decided what to cook them with yet. Glad to see you had a good day foraging. Enjoy
Adam, you have started me on hunting more different species of mushrooms this year besides the morels and I would like to thank you. I've had the pheasant back and chicken of the woods so far (and now notice the multiple species of this). Yesterday I spotted what I thought to be gray oyster mushrooms, but our woods were soaked and I could not get to them. I brought boots along today and sadly they were "melted today" and one that was slowly melting showed my guess was right. I also found a mushroom cluster that looked to be oyster mushrooms, and let them grow overnight and harvested them today. From all my research, it looks like they are the Golden Oyster Mushroom (invasive), do you have those in your area as well?
You should go back to that spot after another hard rainfall. It should produce mushrooms again :-) I've gone to the same oyster mushroom spots for 3 years in a row.
I was really looking forward to finding mushrooms this year , I’ve still never found rieshi or chicken of the woods ! But it’s just been so damn hot and dry here this year
Thanks Adam for another GREAT video! I harvested my first favorite mushroom of the year yesterday..... Chanterelles! Found about three dozen nice size ones with my son. Again, thumbs up from eastern Ohio:)
Im glad you brought it up
I to have been picking up trash in my state forest in ct for years. People ask me why. They say your not getting paid. My answer is that it my forest and i enjoy it in its natural state. The thing is people are greedy selfish and inconsiderate thank you
People are the strangest thing I've ran across so far. Thanks for helping them!
You are amazing, I love what I learn from you.
National Geographic or Discovery needs to hire you for a program.
Dude you are super confident in your ids.
I have seen the wild garlic before but had no clue what it was, once again never to old to learn something new. Thanks again for a great video Adam.
This is one of the best channels on youtube.. instead of filling his video with sponsored advertising he uses the time to encourage people to clean up nature. If even a few people take the advice it will improve nature for everyone. Thumbs up, thumbs way up.

Love, love, love your videos!! Thank you so much for each and every one!
As usual Adam, your videos and knowledge are appreciated. Keep up the great work. Let's leave the woods cleaner than we found it.
Absolutely love the fact you are encouraging harvesting trash too! Always informative, and entertaining. Cheers from Tennessee.
I'm so very VERY greatful for how much you have taught me!! Thank you!
Really like this video, going through several types of mushrooms in the basket is great!
Your enthusiasm is infectious as always!
I appreciate the knowledge and enunciation in all your videos!
Wonderful info. Thanks so much for your time and effort.
Thank you. Wish I’d had this two months ago when I was worried about making my first wild mushroom ID. Very clear distinction of the dryinus.
Hey love your videos!! Still pretty new to the channel so i'll have to keep lookin around but most of what I've seen has been of hunting and I.D. which is amazing, but I would love to see how you prepare some of the less common varieties in the kitchen! Thank you for the invaluable info!
Great content buddy please make sure to continue to make videos. We would all very much appreciate it
Sure wish the woods were as clear here in Missouri as yours are in Penn, I have to deal with pain-in-the-ass underbrush everywhere I go.
Thanks Adam...great video....my wife and I are heading out to hunt right now...love the description of smell(dirty socks) been finding lots of black trumpets, cinabar and smooth chanterelles...although smooths are getting scarce now ....we also have been seeing quite a few of those (reef) species but have not tried them yet....you inspire us .....since I've starting looking for plants and fungi my speed as a hiker and backpacker has slowed down...too much to see...we live in the southwestern part of VA (new river valley) not too far from Blacksburg so the woods we share are very similar having hiked through PA on the AT a couple years back...take care-be safe....additional question we see a species we identified as a false chanterelle... they are bright orange(more so than the cinnabar) they have the same ridges but have a hollow stem...for the record does that sound like a false
great culinary aid foraging video Adam looking forward to the next culinary wild edibles video👍👍👍
hey man, love your videos. You are helping me expand my knowledge on mushrooms so much. Thank you for being so wise and sharing your knowledge with us.
You're welcome, and thanks for watching!
Impressive
Adam as always thank you so much for the share.
I always enjoy your videos, not to mention learning something interesting. Thanks for mentioning picking up trash when out foraging. I do the same. I have also shared your name and channel with others.
Love the idea of picking up the trash while foraging! Love your every video!

You’re a solid dude. Happy foraging!
Was hoping you'd share with us why you harvested that fly agaric ;)
I thought it was a panther. I live near Adam and can't find real fly agaric...always panther.
I found a pleurotus dryinus today! I think I'm going to put it in a meal tomorrow. It's about 7 inches in diameter.
I found a veiled oyster - pleurotus dryinus, the other day. Tasty 😋 Delaware, USA
Adam how did u learn about wild edibles, Your knowledge is pretty darn great!
Grapefruit and dirty sock, sounds delicious
Any day is a good day
I hope that you do show more on the cooking of the mushrooms and the other plants you gather. Can you let me know of a app to help identify these wild plants? Thanks for sharing these video's
Great Video!
Be there for supper!!!

Thank you for picking up trash 🗑 👍🏼
Huge A+++++++!
These, imo, are yummy. One of the several mushroom species that grow wild on our property. 😚
How have I not seen this one??? Lol
Where at in western PA are you?
Love oyster mushrooms but fried in avocado oil never animal fats
that's thoughtful of you to pick up the trash from the forest, who would even trash a forest?! 0_o
I made the mistake of eating one of those bad Puff balls, that nearly killed me lol it was a bad 3hours lol it hurt bad
Love your videos. You're deeply knowledgeable, so immersed in your subject that you aren't self-conscious, and your photographer is spectacular.
I second all that!!
I think he does his own photography/videography.
Very knowledgeable indeed.
Awesome work nonetheless.
No nonetheless about it! I suspected he did, but didn't want to assume. If he DOES, that just makes him MORE awesome!!

Thanks Adam...always enjoy your videos.
And appreciate the plug for picking up garbage...always do so myself.
Same!
I met a forager a few years ago who was pulling out trash with his mushrooms. I do this now sometimes. Your inclusion of this will inspire me to be even more proactive. Thanks!
Anyone else like and share before watching? I always do. Adam, truly wonderful information as always.
Hooray! I like the deep woods trash clean-up!!! Thank you for the tips of identification, too!
Grapefruit with a dirty sock smell. Hmm I've never seen that air freshener in the store

Good to see you...thanks for your important info!
You gave back by picking up the trash :] Thank you.
Need a pocket trainer when I'm out in the woods to help me identify mushrooms when found. Just don't have the confidence yet.
What a joy to find your latest video in my inbox. Great content Adam!
Adam weird question here, are you typically alone when you shoot these videos? Is hiking/foraging alone a valid fear in your opinion? I love to forage and normally I'm alone but sometimes I get paranoid or start to freak out about mountain lions (stupid i know) and I'm wondering if you have any tips on getting over this fear!!

Top notch video
Just found you. ❤ your teeth.
Superb video many thanks.
Your videos are always excellent! Thanks for sharing! Yep, I take trash out with me too.. Hate seeing garbage in the woods.
Good idea to use an egg carton!! Didn't know we could eat Sassafras leaves. Thanks for the tip! Nice little dish you made!! Looks delish! I cannot believe people trash the woods that they selfishly enjoy. :( Good guy to pick up!! :)
Squirrels LOVE all russula mushrooms! I had about 3-4 types in my backyard, gone in 2 hours!
Love you Adam!
Glad to hear from you
ok, fine i subbed. you're too good. good sound, good video, good lighting, good info, and good host.
Hi Adam🌞 always excited to see a new video from you! Appreciate the recipe....that's a bonus..thanks! I would love it if you came to British Columbia's Lower Mainland to do a foraging walk....or even Washington state😊🤩
Out here in the forest licking slime off of mushroom caps like a SAVAGE and shit!!! SCIENCE!!!!
Great video! Thank you so much for mentioning to remove trash, I try to do the same and it does make a difference!

I only know about them purple/black spore prints. Hehe.
Thank you for telling us about the sassafras leaves, and about picking up trash in the woods - especially your reason for doing so.
Awesome, engaging video

Great stuff, as always
You are so amazing Adam! I just love your work and your dedication to education and the environment!
Man your are extremely knowledgeable, this is awesome and you are so good at explaining everything. Amazing video
Thanks for watching!
Your very knowledgeable about mushrooms and plants. Thanks for making these videos.

Hi Adam, thank you for sharing another fine video. I am looking forward to seeing more fine videos. Thanks again.
Should call it the Snow Man mushroom.
Thank you for this presentation. It will probably be two weeks before I harvest the scapes from the garlic growing in the wild plot near my house. I haven't decided what to cook them with yet. Glad to see you had a good day foraging. Enjoy
Love watching your clips. Learn so much. I wish I am in your state. Beautiful and have so many mushrooms. 🍄🍄🍄❤️
Thanks for another video. It's great to see that have and share a great respect for nature's beauty. Enjoy her bounty.
Pieces...... How is it pronounced???????
Hadda watch *again*
of course *IT IS SAVED*
_THANKS Adam_
Good shit bro. Many impressed

Excellent video man really enjoyed the cast iron cooking also
