Cannot tell you how much your videos have helped me learn more about Fungi! Another great one. Thanks so much for all your efforts.

Adam is really the best out there, huh..? Him and Paul Stamets.... THANK YOU Adam

[@LearnYourLand]

Thank you!

[@UpNorthFreyja]

Strangely, this is one that I found on my first-ever mushroom foraging trip. After identifying them and researching them, I decided to eat them. They were very tasty. Thanks for featuring them.

[@Meattrapper]

Great video - an excellent explanation of this topic. Your camera work is also outstanding!

[@LearnYourLand]

Thanks! Glad you enjoyed watching this!

[@stevepalmateer]

Found my first oyster mushroom yesterday while turkey hunting. Grew on a dead red maple stump. Found my first truly choice specimens of pheasant back several days ago while turkey hunting here in SW Ontario. Growing on a dead white ash log. Thanks again for giving me the confidence to properly identify more and more wild edibles each and every season (last fall it was my first maitake - almost 5 lbs!)

[@zoeycla]

Adam, you are an outstandingly skillful educator and I thank you so much for providing one of the best explanations about the Angel Wing mushroom! Keep up the hard work!

[@LearnYourLand]

Thank you!

[@donnaf2666]

Well said! Excellent educator! Everyone should know this stuff.

[@dougalexander7204]

Adam... So impressed with the knowledge you share. I’m a blacksmith, woodwright, sawyer, and miller for the DNR, in a Pioneer Village, at a state park in Indiana. I often go on nature walks for a break and harvest only 7 mushrooms I know; puff balls, indigo milk caps, coral fungus, oyster, hen of the woods, and of course morals. But, in the spring I’m excited to try to identify others from your YT videos, I’m 65 with arthritis and nerve issues. Especially interested in the medicinal mushrooms and plants you discuss. Thank you!

[@Berliozboy]

Boy howdy are your videos good. You are getting me to get out of my house and just look at plants and mushrooms more. Notice what makes each unique and what appears together. I went from a curiosity in plants and mushrooms (which lead me to your videos) to wanting this to be a significant part of my life. I'm lucky to live in an area that although suburban has large swaths of small forests surrounding neighborhoods and driving distance to large forests and the idea that i could form a lifelong relationship with those woods around my house, see and understand the changes overtime has me stoked and happy. Keep up the amazing work, you're so good at what you do. Will hopefully come out to some of your events!! PS. Found and foraged my first Lion's Mane this week. Delicious. And just discovered deeper in a cavity in the same tree an Hericium americanum.

[@rockerobertson4002]

I never thought there would be a time when I'd like and appreciate a video about mushrooms. But now since I'm crazy about mushroom hunting, I honestly find your video's amazing. Really great quality information and presentation. Very helpful. Thank you very much!

[@brandtcrabbe2273]

I recently got my wild mushroom foraging certification. I thought I was interested in the world of mushrooms before but now that I took a class to learn more, all I want to do is learn everything I can about mushrooms. I watch your videos every day and you answer so many questions that I can't find in books. Thank you very much for all your hard work. (Though I know this isn't work to you because you love it like I do.)

[@kennethwilbanks9713]

Eat them all the time.... delicious and NEVER been sick what so ever.... never.

[@AK-jk7co]

During this incredibly wet (and fruitful) summer while walking in a predominantly coniferous area of a forest in eastern PA, I found, without exaggeration, probably 50 or more fresh, beautiful Pluerocybella porrigens growing out of multiple fallen hemlock. It was a sight to behold and my greedy mushroom hunter heart was aflutter! I have ID'd, harvested and eaten these mushrooms before in small amounts and they're delicious. Then I remembered the article about the poisonings in Japan, which I was only made aware of a few months ago for some reason, and decided they were better as a beautiful sight rather then a meal. I'm not sure if I would never eat one of these mushrooms again, but this time the poisonings in Japan were too fresh in my mind to not cause paranoia.

[@UnspokenWilderness]

The more I get into mushrooming, the more these videos fascinate me. They are beautiful and informative.

[@youngcurto3223]

Enjoyed every minute! Thanks Adam!

[@LearnYourLand]

Thanks!

[@MrGreenotwo]

Another Great VIDEO!!! Ya I mean its all based on the consumer to know what they are ingesting. Wish the medical field was as detailed as you are on their drugs that they say are 'safe' for us to consume. Thank you for being one of the many sources I go to for mushroom advice.

[@LearnYourLand]

You're welcome, thanks for watching!

[@tropicalco2339]

They're detailed, just watch the commercials. "May cause swelling of throat, loss of appetite, or DEATH! "

[@squirrelpiewoosh]

I think its funny that every time I talk a friend that I only get to chat with about once a month, we talk about mushrooms. This past time she actually brought the Angel Wing up when talking about Oysters, and I come home to find that one of my favorite Mushroom KZbin channels has made a video about them. There has been several other times when this has happened. Keep up the great work, I love these videos. ^_^

[@Jessicamavica]

Thank you for this video. I have seen lots of angels and a few oysters, but haven’t felt 100% about harvesting them yet. I did just get a DIY oyster mushroom kit that I started last night and can’t wait to see how it goes! You are always very helpful in expanding our knowledge, and I appreciate that! 🍄

[@djp9832]

good luck oysters are one of the easiest ones to grow

[@N8URNURD]

A lot of discussion about Pleurocybella porrigens in our local groups this year, but I think most people are more interested in looking at them than risking anything, safe or not. Great work!

[@pappapinskie5883]

Great vid. One that needed to be done by someone who knows what they’re talking about LOL Personally, I will steer clear of it. But mainly due to the fact that I don’t like oyster mushrooms and already steer clear of those due to the taste. I’d imagine these are not much different - but someone correct me if I’m wrong! I wonder why all those poisonings in Japan happened in the same year.. wouldn’t we see it happening consistently over there? Or did a huge group of old, sick people with kidney problems get together and eat angel wings? Lol Anyways, thanks for another great vid!

One more awesome video. I stumbled on you a while back, and am truly impressed with your knowledge, and preparation of your videos. You're also someone who just has a likeable character, and your passion for the subject flows out of you. I ate my first chicken of the woods, and my first ever wild mushroom this week, largely thanks to you. The mushroom was over "ripe" and not a nice texture, but I ate it anyway, since it was in polenta. Only criticism I could have, is you speak just a little fast. You have so much information to give, and it's a lot to take in at high speed, but please don't stop making more. Love them, and you've inspired me.....I'm also pretty sure I know where to find some oyster mushrooms, and I'll be on the hunt in two days! Thanks!
