Many mushroom hunters are quite secretive about their spots. This is because once you find an area that produces a large number of mushrooms, it may continue producing for years.
I don’t have secret spots. You can see everywhere I go right here. I do enjoy exploring though. Here I share some of the tools and strategies I use to find areas that might be good for mushrooms. I will update this presentation and host another live version again in the future.
