Please note: Due to time constraints, I am unable to answer all mushroom and plant ID requests. If you are seeking to have your mushroom or plant identified, here are a few options:
Join your local mushroom or botanical club.
Join one of the many mushroom or plant identification groups on Facebook.
Purchase a few good field guides and practice keying out specimens as you find them. For mushrooms, I recommend books by Gary Lincoff, Alan & Arleen Bessette, Roger Phillips, Walt Sturgeon, Tim Baroni, and David Arora. For plants, I recommend Newcomb’s Wildflower Guide. If you’re specifically interested in plant foraging resources, check out Samuel Thayer’s books.
