The member areas have literally 1000's of mushroom photos, mushroom recipes, mushroom videos, mushroom hunting tips and info, newsletters, chat room, places to hunt wild mushrooms, and just about everything else you can imagine relating to wild mushrooms, not just morels. By joining this club, you will have unlimited access to all of the member areas for your benefit, but most importantly, you will be helping to support this website. We now have a network of over 1000 members worldwide and in all 50 states. As a member, you also can participate in any of the Mushroom Hunting Forays. These Guided mushroom hunts have been experiences of a lifetime for many, and many new friends are always made.
It is because of my love and enjoyment in hunting mushrooms that I am bringing you this site. I have hunted mushrooms since I was 5 years old, (at that time, stepped on a lot ), and been doing it ever since. Mushroom hunting seems to get in your blood, once you do it a few times, you are addicted. I enjoy just traipsing through the woods, and the excitement of finding the mushrooms, and, of course, EATING them! This site is directed to help you enjoy your 'Shroomin' also! Enjoy!
I also strongly encourage members to give as much of their own personal input as possible. I would like everyone to really get involved. We all can learn a lot. Two heads are better than one, so 500 would be that much better!
I have searched the internet endlessly, and never could find a mushroom site that I was really pleased with, a few photos here, a few recipes there, no sites with EVERYTHING! If I can make this site meet my expectations, then hopefully it will meet yours also. Take the TOUR above and try it out. If you ever have any questions, just email me below.
Sincerely, Chris Matherly
