After concerns about a drought earlier in the year, the summer of 2021 has been exceptionally wet, especially good weather for wild mushrooms.

CAUTION: How can you tell the difference between an edible wild mushroom and a poisonous one? Unless you are very experienced in mushroom identification, you can’t!! It is NEVER safe to eat a wild mushroom unless a mushroom identification expert says so. Poison.org
