16 Wild Edible Mushrooms You Can Forage This Autumn

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6PNq6paMBXU

NOTE- Forage Only When NecessaryDo Not over harvest wild foods. Foraging is fun, but remember that as a human, you have the ability to source your food in your natural environment - wildlife does not. If you must forage for food or herbs for an ailment, only harvest 5% -10% of what you see of any plant or patch you find, so it has a good chance to keep growing and come back next year. Remember that other lives depend on it.
