Howdy!

This group is for those interested in hunting mushrooms and the science of mycology. We focus on exploring the fungi of central Texas, and in the safe identification of edible mushrooms. Covering everything from mushroom growing to cooking, this group will hopefully be best thing that has happened to you in years.

If you want to know about the wonderful edible mushrooms in Texas, especially locally near Austin, then join this club!

Be you a mycologist with a PhD, or a interested soccer mom, come forth and learn!

We're trying to put together a website with Texas mushroom hunting information.

Note: We are *not* about hunting the illegal cubensis 'magic mushrooms', that is not our focus. Go elsewhere for that, please.

    "New to the Group. I have been Morel hunting in fire areas many times. I am interested in taking advantage of the burns around Austin, and also up north around Mineral Wells. It's quite a drive from Dallas to come up empty...."
