If there are any morel hunters out there - I found 3 small black morels under an 1nch big today in Midland County, MI.

So heads up. it's time.

If anyone local to said county or state is interested hit me up.
I have a 4x4 truck and spare onion sacks - I have green trees and I have a lot of fun - Morel Hunting for the win.

I'm a morel mushroom hunter, I usually don't go out until early/mid May. I'm in MN, good to know they are starting to come out!

What do you guys do with these? Sell them or eat them once you find them?

I would sell, and keep a handful for the kitchen.

Funny in this day and age there is still a highly lucrative herb business, these morels have cost as much as truffles and take saffron for example, saffron is still $115 per ounce.

Some things cannot be industrialized (but if you research saffron you'll see why it's hard to get).

I coat mine with flour and pan fry in butter, combine that with a t-bone or ribeye off the grill and you have one helluva great meal!!

I generally pass on anything that grows on cow shit, aka psychedelic mushrooms. I am a big fan of morel mushrooms though. Will hopefully get a bag full of black and greys tomorrow :)

Most shrooms these days are made by isolated spores and rice.

for me, i had some awesome times with them and a few very bad times. one time i ended up in the woods listening to the leaves and grass talk(which was just the wind blowing thru them) while a quivered in fear of this tree, it had a section of bark missing that looked like a wide open mouth. i prolly sat there for hours to scared to move.

Well, you wash the dang things. It's a fungus anyways.

My little brother absolutely refuses to touch a mushroom. It's FUNGUS, he says.

I mainly hunt for King Boletes and chanterelles.
I'm a sucker for boletes.
I've never found those darn morels :(

(and psilocybes haha. Mainly p.Semilanceatas. A handful of them does the trick)

old time no.7

the psylocybins (sic) are the only ones i've ever actually hunted for. but once you find out they grow on shit, you can get a little skeeved out and get teh hurls if you try to munch them raw. i take them in the tea. easier to guage that way. havn't had them en years here. good luck on yer quests yeunglings.
