    My mother got me into foraging and I love it.
    It's exiciting, relaxing and really clears the mind from all the everyday stress (as a "casual" forager).
    Walking around in beautiful forests, enjoying nature and breathing fresh air is really special.
    I really recommend trying it, but as mentioned in the video, it is very important to not pick or eat anything you are not completely sure of.
    Much love from Sweden!

    I myself mushroom hunt saffron milk caps and boletus mushrooms, both are very easy to identify. Milk caps have none that are poisonous, but can be very unpleasant like hotter than a pepper. Some are so hot they feel like they could stop your breathing but won't kill you just very unpleasant. Boletus are very easy to identify as they do not have normal gills but network of pores and once again only one is toxic but not deadly.

    Foraging should be reserved for personal use. In some areas in EU, there is hundreds of workers coming from other countries even that come to """forage""" all the produce in the woods. Local people can't access these then. And then supermarkets or restaurants re-sell those mushrooms, berries etc at a high price. fak this. Hobbits would not build a business out of exploiting wild produce like that. Foraging to innoculate and cultivate on your own land, why not. In all cases: respect for the knowledge and skill.

    Great video. Love his enthusiasm! There are some inaccuracies though.
    1. He points out what he thinks to be destroying angels, but it's not possible to confirm that they are from the video alone. The ones in the video look more like an agaricus species.
    2. Mushrooms don't have high protein content. It is beneficial to eat mushrooms for their nutritional content (some can have high vitamin D content for example) and while some nutrients are only found in mushrooms (myconutrients), you definitely won't be eating mushrooms for their high protein content.
    Also an fyi: he chews on some of the wild mushrooms, but hopefully he spits them out after. This can be done to correctly ID species, but you should never eat raw mushrooms. They should always be cooked. Happy hunting :)

    Dear friends, if you really love mushrooms and take care of them, you should know that they must not be harvested cutting the base with a knife, because what remains will develop rottenness that will damage the micelio in the ground. Mushrooms must be taken by the base and rotated until they come out. As you (only) did with the big porcino.
    More than this, the best way to bring them home is using a wicker basket, so the spores can fall to the ground and give birth to other mushrooms.
    I saw many mistakes you should avoid.

      Yeah screw his yeti bag, get a wicker basket or netted bag. All that talk about mushroom spore reproduction then just not give them a chance to reproduce.

      So what happens to a mushroom that nobody forages when it inevitably decays? Does every mushroom hurt its own mycelial network by going through its natural life cycle?

      The spores dont need a wicker basket that is a myth, and mycelium is very resilient

    Why does he say mushrooms have great protein content?, it has little to no protein, max 3.1g pr 100g.

    One message is lost here. No mushroom is worth your health! You have to follow three rules: 1)There are many more poisonous mushrooms that can kill you in three days. Many of them look very close to edible mushrooms. Not 100% sure, new to the game do not take there are plenty of other mushrooms. 2) When I was watching episode, I cringed a little. Three people gathering mushrooms in short in the places with dense grassy vegetation and forests with mosquitoes. It is recipe for getting tick on you! Protect your self from ticks (and mosquitoes) 3) Mushrooms are full on nutrients and minerals because they absorb EVERYTHING around them. Thus, do not collect mushrooms in the cities, especially places where herbicides/pesticides or fertilizers was used.

      All reasonable points . There are lots of high end restaurant that buy from foragers . Perhaps it's wiser to stick with farmed not foraged fungi .

    Saprophytic does not mean that it’s working on killing the tree. It means it is decomposing a tree that is very weak or already dead, and that is a big difference when you categorize the ecological roles of funga.
    It also makes absolutely no sense to talk about animals and funga as close cousin. That’s simply ridiculous.
    It’s nice to watch people getting more in touch with nature and sharing their enthusiasm for foraging, but it’s not cool to blurt out scientific-sounding BS. For the love of science and mushroom foragers worldwide, please stop doing that.

    Why don't they just farm these without raiding the forest? Could probably mass farm them using the methods they showed at the beginning but maybe indoors to better control the environment?

    Didn’t discuss any sort of sustainable practices like leaving a decent amount so that for years in the future the mushrooms can be found again. Not talking about that makes me think this is strictly pillage the land of all potential profits. Which is gross.
