I've never picked wild mushrooms, what are the chances of picking a poisonous one thus facing the bad outcome of it? I took down pages of information on your one video naming the trees and mushrooms found under them and of course screen stamped all the photos. Is there a book you could suggest or does one just pick and try and figure out later via info online if their picked mushrooms are edible? Also how many mushrooms are there that are poisonous but look exactly like edible ones? Your videos are very informative glad to have found your channel and continue to watch as a new subscriber.

@@hikerx9366 , my father was an excellent mushroomer ( but could be a tyrant ) , anyway although I watched him very closely , I would never trust me picking the mushrooms - I'm a very talented artist , not my father , yet he knew the difference at a glance and never made a mistake - more than any other food I miss starting dinner with a wild mushroom salad ! it's like when a doctor shows you an x-ray , somehow he sees what you don't ! be careful !

An excellent video!

There is another added benefit. Ive been going through a lot of difficult times the last couple years, and your videos have inspired me to go look for wild edibles. The value of having motivation to go out and enjoy a walk in the woods like I used to is immeasurable. Takes my mind off things, and gets me moving, even gets me excited if I find something. Thanks for the videos Adam.

exploring in the woods does a lot of good for the mind and the depth and layers of the woods just unfold the more you learn. i grew up on a dead end street that connected right to the woods. The hard times being able to just go up there got me through are endless. I know those woods like the back of my hand. Now that i am older i had to move somewhere else and its no where near woods. there are parks but they are open and there are lots of people. there is no imagination or wonder. I hope to one day get closer to the woods again and learn to hunt more mushrooms and other things. life is meaningless but life is also beautiful. When ever you are lost the beauty of nature and this world can bring you right back its just a matter of putting your self into it and learning the best ways to experience it..

Jo TV Yeah, I lost my forest from when I was younger too, and right now I'm in the city, and can't travel out of it, but at least I found this place, right in the suburbs, with a beaver pond, swamps, fox, raccoon, skunks, hawks, lots of birds, and a decent pile of woods. People rarely go off the one big trail, and there is plenty of space to "get lost" in. Especially when the leaves are up. And it's right in a large suburb! It's like my happy place for now, but it's no real forest. Not like where I used to go. Hope you're doing well anyway.

Never have I witnessed delivery and knowledge on a subject like Adam does. Adam is very well educated, with a handle on how to deliver a message and back up his passion for mushrooms. He has an uncanny way of educating you on the major benefits of mushrooms without medically convincing you to do so. He is far beyond his years and extremely well schooled. I dare anyone to deliver a 30min video on any subject without using fill in words like "um" Adam is a pros pro. ✌

One personal reason to eat mushrooms- I love it.

Mushrooms get you outside to soak up sunshine and fresh air. Give you a reason/opportunity to continually learn. They also taste delicious. Thanks for checking in, Adam. Stay well. Just waiting for the next flush to begin over here in IN.

Awesome! I had no idea that putting sliced mushrooms in the sun for 15 minutes increased the level of vitamin D2 in the mushrooms.

I love how it's just a given that 'a willingness to be of service to others' and 'nightly journalling practices' are the definition of good health. If only everyone was so evolved. haha

I eat a lot of wild mushrooms. There is no doubt that mushrooms have a lot of benefits that need to be more explored and understood. Populations across the world still have fungi phobia, they usually only eat the white Agaricus from the grocery store. That needs to change. There are benefits in the intake and also in the mushroom hunting activity that makes people go outside to nature.

I like that you included journaling. It's a great mental health thing. Even if you RIP it up afterwards. This 3 month's of quarentine can be horrible.

We love mushrooms and between my wife an I go thorough about 5 lbs. a week. Love the flavors, love the textures love the cooking versatility. Try this: Boil up some cauliflower (16 oz.) until mashing tender, drain well, mash with however much butter you like season with garlic, slat and pepper. Saute a good amount (8 oz.) of chopped (1/3" pieces) mushrooms in butter with some onions (4 oz). When the onions have gone clear and the mushrooms are about half their original size, fold into the cauliflower. If you do';t consume butter, then an equal amount of Whole Foods avocado oil is great too. Adjust seasoning as required.

All mushrooms are magical if you know how to use them! It's a beautiful thing.🦌🍄🐂🍄🐎🧚‍♀️💙🧜‍♂️🎅

I got a great one. They taste amazing, are a diabetic zero which means for people like me, they can be enjoyed as a snack without worrying about any sugar spikes. And for any one who has never eaten a pickled mushroom, you need to try that wonderful treat.

Thank you, Adam! It's because of you that I was able to identify, harvest and enjoy over a pound of Hen of the Woods that I would have otherwise thought nothing of previously. And I only harvested half the mushroom! Cheers!

Your videos are so well made, and you are so happy! It’s nice to see someone so passionate and knowledgeable passing this information to us!

These videos must take a lot of work on your part. Thanks for all you do. I always learn so much and am starting to identify mushrooms in the wild this season. Oddly exciting.

You sir deserve more recognizance for your in depth work. Thank you.

Dang, you're becoming a huge influencer. One hour after an upload you've already got over 1000 views registered. I remember days when you didn't get that much exposure in a month or two. Congrats Adam. You put the time in and create excellent content to prove the value of your work. Kudos and cheers 🍻

great video !!! I study mushrooms in desert of mexico, Adam you really awesome I`m your fan

When he litterally tells you exactly how to live a good life, physically AND mentally. Love it, Thank you for this video

Adam, I have access to practically limitless public land and your videos have been incredibly beneficial and educational. I'm confident I can identify numerous fungi species (cross referred of course) effortlessly because of your uploads! My family have been looking a lot, we feel morels will be fruiting soon in our area. Keep it up man, you're doing a good thing.

I liked how you added the comment about what it takes to be healthy beyond the mushrooms, especially noting the willingness to be of service to others. You don’t hear that too often these days but it is extremely important (IMO) and contributes to healthy relationships which you also mentioned.

Thank you for sharing your knowledge Adam.

Adam only been watching a short time. I really enjoy watching you have taught me much in this short time. Keep up the great work.

Thnxs 4 uploading and sharing 👍🇺🇸

Adam, that was one of your best videos. (My fav is the soulful one you did about eastern hemlocks.) I am trending toward vegetarianism, so I am glad I saw that section on B12. I got into foraging and consuming wild mushrooms a few years ago. They have changed my life. I am have been in sales since 1982, was always susceptible to influenza, and would annually be sick several times each year, often with fevers above 102°, occassionally above 103, and even up to 104.1. Then I began consuming medicinal mushroom tea, plus lysine, and now I have only gotten a mild flu once. As soon as I feel the flu coming, I brew a gallon of tea with red reishi, turkey tail, cinnabar polypore, purple reishi (just ran out), and birch polypore. Sometimes I add chaga. I will keep adding more water to the pot and drink the tea through the second or third day. I live in R.I., which is almost as good for mushrooms as PA and NH. I started feeling sick in early March after pitching a guy at his house who owned his own limo business and was sick as a dog. I could not get tested, but I am pretty confident it was COVID-19 because I had five classic symptoms. I have several health pre-conditions. I made my tea. I drank it for five days. The symptoms were gone within two days. I never had the rough ride. It is very possible that the anti-viral properties and the immune moderating properties of the tea saved me from a severe or fatal episode. Thanks for all of the great knowledge you impart, and good health to you and yours.

I love how you introduce your videos it's nice to hear you lay out exactly why you're letting us know what you are!

You definitely have 'fungi charisma' and I find your teaching style very useful, and your 'cute' charm draws me to learn a surprising amount I didn't know. Thanks for your passion. I've been into mushrooms myself ever since I found my first chanterelle inThe Netherlands in 1951 when camping.

Thank you for your presentation.

Would love if you linked to the actual papers . Excellent video.

I got into mushroom foraging because of you. Thanks dude, it’s a lot of fun.

Thanks for the inspiration and instruction Adam. Chance favoured me today with a bounty of black morels. My first fungi harvest ever. I took your advice and started with a small snack. Delicious and it seems like I'll survive. Tomorrow night I feast! Btw, I found mine among the pines and cedars. Ontario Canada.

I love every learn your land episode. I still need to go through the whole library but Adam,you are awesome. Wish I could forage with you! Also love that you never have ads! True volunteer! ♡ You show what nature is capable of and we should appreciate what is offered! Thank you for your effort!

Yessss. Have something to look forward to watching after work. Thanks Adam!

Thank you for all your wisdom in this. And letting everyone know.

Thank you for a new video! Love seeing your stuff!

Adam! I’m a long-term watcher/first-time commentor. Thank you so much for your videos! You are my go-to expert on all things mushroom. You’ve been one of the forces that increased my courage to branch out from morels (and actually start keeping half-frees). When I heard your “Magic Bullet” section (2:22-2:55) I felt like I’d found a kindred spirit. I’m astounded that so many people think health is simply a function of nutrition, exercise, luck, and genetics. I recognize connection (relationships with others, journaling, etc.) as vital for health. And I wonder how much the willingness to spend time searching for mushrooms plays into health. In case you’re looking for content ideas, I would love to see a video about YOU-how you got into mushrooms and learned so much, what your other interests are, how a typical day looks for you, etc. As a parent, I love to expose my daughter to a variety of ideas and passionate people. I love to study how those passions come to fruition and beautiful people develop! I’m also curious what your thoughts are on cultivated vs. wild mushrooms. I just inoculated some logs with shiitake and am thinking about trying to grow some hemlock reishi as well (since I have access to 2 dead-but-standing hemlocks). Today I was consulting your channel to determine if ganoderma tsugae has similar health benefits to ganoderma lingzhi; there is so much info out there that I cannot possibly sort through it all!!! Thank you again for devoting yourself to this esoteric and expansive field!

I love all your videos! Your awesome keep up the great work!

Another excellent report Adam. You do a wonderful job. Let me ask you about a theory of mine: I grew in up in the Finger Lakes region of upstate NY in the '50's. Giant puffballs were common and plentiful. Sometime afterwards, they diminished dramatically. This was at about the time that Eastern Equine Encephalitis became a problem in the region. During the 70's planes flew along the lake roads to combat the disease, apparently being spread by farmers taking their horses to Cornell for treatment. Sound plausible at all? Thanks for all the information you broadcast.

I've always loved mushrooms and wondered about their health benefits. Thanks for a very informative video! 👍

Seriously though, you're a such a pro. Thanks for disseminating such powerful information. In a crazy world what a nice break! Don't go away!

Great video! I'm over here in Ohio and love your videos! If you're ever over this way, I'd love to meet you. I harvest a lot of turkey tail, reishi, lions mane, oysters black and golden chantrelles, hen and chicken. Would love your knowledge on these boletes.

Always great videos they produce with a lot of knowledge thank you so much

This so cool. I would love to forage with you someday to learn from your knowledge.

Excellent presentation Adam! I can't help but wonder if you present the information from memory or do you use a teleprompter that you prepare ahead of time & just read from it? In any event, do mushrooms also contain NAC (N-Aceytlcysteine)? Vit D & NAC are very important supplements to take in the fight against COVID-19. Without going into much detail, they help prevent oxedative stress & the resultant cytokine storm which is responsible for most deaths. Anyway, I was just curious about that particular compound......Stay safe! 😉😉👍👍
