RE: Walk With Me [6 - Part 2] - Big Logs, Mushroom Babies and Lobsters! - Foraging in Oregon's Coastal Forest

Thanks, @erikah! That's one reason I like seeing wild mushrooms for sale at the markets. It help everyone see wild mushrooms are real food, and they get practice for identification. You may see those Lobster mushrooms in markets that carry wild mushrooms. They are pretty distinctive, once you get to know them.

Sort:  

Here in Romania selling mushrooms at the traditional market is illegal, unless if you have a license to grow mushrooms or a proof of origin, like an invoice.
You can't sell foraged mushrooms.

That's interesting. Every place has their own set of rules for foraging mushrooms and selling them, too. Around me, I have to pay attention to the rules, too. It all depends on who owns the land. Even the public land has rules that are different from place to place -- and they change over time, too. In one national forest, I don't need a permit. And in another one, I need a $10 permit. But in another one, I need a permit but it is free. It gets complicated, lol. So I am always happy when a tasty mushroom appears in my own yard! :D
