These videos are terrific. My 30 year old son has become a mushroom hunter recently. I sometimes walk with him during his searches for mushroom "honey holes" as he calls them. Edible or in-edible it is fun to look for them. He is trying to train his dog to find the edible ones, so far this is a no go. The dog is more interested in following the chipmunks and squirrels.

Adam, your videos are almost like crash courses, every second is jam packed with only the necessary information, and you do it with such ease. This is quality work!

as a Texan who just moved to the NE, you are a lifesaver. We don't know much about foraging anything but pecans

Your one of the best at mushrooms, very good, I’m 72 and been hunting them over65 yrs- enjoy your videos very much , keep up the good work 😝👌🏽

I only have three years to catch up, I'm 69, so I hope I can sit down at you campfire some day... I am stone dumb about shrooms but I do use the medicinal varieties. I did cook a roast with some black morels once and it was among the best. I ate some false morels up in Michigan once, and as I over cooked and reached too high a temperature, the Hydrazine started blasting off in the skillet. These surely were the true False Morels, containing the chemical Hydrazine, also found in Rocket fuel. They are deadly, though you can eat them for years, ... then one day, THUD !

I’m not a big fan of eating mushrooms myself, but I have some chanterelles growing under the oak trees in my front yard. This video has given me the confidence to harvest them for the people I know who DO want to cook with them!

Now imagine a guy saying this about a woman.

How refreshing to listen to a knowledgeable young person with a brain. An unusual phenomenon these days.

This has got to be one of the best channels regarding mushrooms and habitat on youtube. Adam is so intelligent and easy to listen to. The passion just bleeds through the screen and after every video I am revamped with a new energy to get outside and enjoy our beautiful planet.

It has been a few years since I picked Chanterelles. Used to make a light gravy with them and serve it over rice. My brother ran a buying station over on the coast, the Pacific, were they are more prevalent. We also have a Chanterelle that has a spiky spore body, we call these Hedgehog mushrooms and generally fix them about the same as others. This little mushroom fetches a higher price the the regular Chanterelles, the biggest market for these and others is Japan We also have a mushroom that parasitizes other mushrooms, called the Lobster mushroom, the last one I found was nearly as large as volleyball. Buy the time they are ready to eat, they will have numerous worms growing in them, the bigger the mushroom the more of a chance to be able to get good worm free flesh. I have diced them into gravies, saute them butter, even french fried them. After watching your video, I think I am going to make trip over to the coast and pick me a small bucket full. for a dinner of rice and mushroom gravy. You are a bad influences, I am just shy my 70th, now I want to walk in the woods. I was in Japan in the 1970's and I ate my first Oregon grown mushrooms at a restaurant in Tokyo. //es//A Proud Honorable Disabled American Combat Veteran, 1967-1994, The Wild Lady in the Woods.

Thank you, I think you just saved me from a nasty experience. Jack o Lanten is here in Southwest France. My mushroom books never warned of this Chanterelle look alike.

When are you publishing a field guide? I would definitely purchase one.

Thanks for this video Adam. I just brought home some jacck o lanterns with reishei and puffballs. We didn't know what they were but they smelled really good as far a mushrooms go. Our plan was to identify after bringing them home and you helped out tremendously with this video. Thank you.

In my opinion the difference between the two is pretty clear and you certainly touched on all of the differences. The first time I found a jack o lantern my first thought was that it was a chantrelle. Quickly it became apparent to me it wasn't. They are much larger, much more orange and a much larger cluster. Good job in explaining the differences. Thanks for these extremely informative videos.

Your a good speaker/teacher and always smiling your videos are a pleasure to watch Definitely doing what your meant to do and helping us so much. This is info we all should know. Lost knowledge I feel

An awesome video to help distinguish between Chants & Jack's!! Thanks again, Adam!! I have found chants on my hikes this week.. and they were delish!!

Great video - very detailed. I really appreciate your time and effort.

Excellent video again Adam. The differences between the two are so important to know, and your descriptions are superb.

Youre the best Adam! Youve tought me so much. Ive found a lot of Chants this year and I love them... Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge!

Thank you! We found a bunch of scattered chanterelles today and your video helped us confirm the ID! Delicious treat for dinner!!!

Adam - I LOVE your energy, your enthusiasm and your super "smarts" for the mushrooms!! I just picked a bunch of Chanterelles in a forest in northwestern Oregon yesterday with my son (and it's mid-September). It was my first time, but he has picked them in the same spot for years. He may know about the Jack O'Lanterns but never mentioned them. Maybe it's because he has always picked in the same area for so long. It's so good to be informed about something that looks like Chanterelles that should be avoided. Keep sharing your mushroom knowledge and THANK YOU for these great videos!!

You are very well spoken and explain things very well. I appreciate showing the difference between the two, especially for a beginner like me!

we have smooth chanterelles growing wild on about an acre on our property under our pecan trees, we love them. we are lucky ;)

Great video! I love how clear and well explained the differences are between these two mushrooms! Thank you:-)!

Saved from a miserable evening. Thank you.

Adam, Always great videos, with lots of useful info!!!! . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . I too ate the Jack-o-Lantern mushroom. I was mislead by a book called, "The Encyclopedia of Mushrooms". I have since thrown the book away, it had a photo of the Lack-o-lantern under the name "Amethyst Chanterelle". The mushroom I had was big bright brilliantly orange cluster of mushrooms, and it was exactly like your Jack-o-lantern mushroom in this video, joined at the base. Always, always keep some "Activated Charcoal" on hand. After eating some of the Jack-o-lantern mushroom, I found on the internet that it was a Jack-o-lantern and not a Chanterelle mushroom. I grabbed the Activated Charcoal and drank 2 large glasses of in over the course of the day, and was able to get through with minimal effects. Activate Charcoal is the first thing that they give for possible poisoning in the ER. I studied Activate Charcoal a few years back to understand all the hype there is about it, and was I glad! . . . . . . . . . . . . Yesterday, I found real Chanterelles, under an oak tree.

I have jack-o-lantern mushrooms growing in a large group at the base of a large oak tree in my side yard. Beautiful, and yes ..when there is no moon above, they glow with a soft green color.

Just picked my first chanterelles today! Thank you so much Adam for all your videos and information.

Are you back east?... the chantrelle in the San Francisco Bay area grows out of logs of bay laurel..big ones.. but, despite many other types of mushrooms, that was the only type I have ever found... back when cameras used film.. ;;☆》 Looked it up, asked my wife, who helped collect about a thousand groups of pictures of mushrooms in one of the rare hardwood forests in California.. it was probably in the litter around a stump.. and.. we harvested this one stump regularly for a couple years.. the Wikipedia article said they are the largest, and these were about 15 cm across or more even.. I don't seem to make mushroom soup as much without them.. 36 years is a long time to miss a 🍄.. mushroom.. we had hundreds of mushrooms in a hardwood rain forest... in the Berkeley Hills.. Briones Park... Thanks for your great lecture... I live in Arizona... it has rained about 15 minutes here this year

We get chantrells out here in ORE in the fir @ hemlock forests. They seem to like ferns, oregon grape, and moss to grow in. Here is 2 tips if you find a big chanty stalk cut the stalk into 4 segments, go back there 2 weeks later and you will have 4 nice buttons growing on that stalk. Also if you don't know a area, get on a deer trail. The deer eat them and they will poop the spores out in their crap. Also if you find some look around because the spores sometimes float on the breeze. Look straight up and down the hill from a batch you just found. We have white ones too which I like better, probaly because I've ate so many yellow ones. Slightly different taste with whites.

Great video filled with clear and understandable information! Looking forward to more from you.

Love your channel!!! Thanks for all the information!
