Edible
Mushrooms Found
Here is a list of some edible mushrooms I have found,
and eaten in some cases, in my area in the past two years. The "Taste
Rating" is my own. A = Choice, B = Good, C= Edible
Where the Taste Rating is not given, it means I have not eaten that one yet, or I
have not made up my mind :o)
Photo will be provided when I have a good picture and time.
