I run a website/blog at FunGalForager.com where I share education about foraging for mushrooms and other wild foods in Idaho, the Mountain West and beyond. I'm always out puttering around in the woods and by-ways so I thought this would be a good place to share some observations. I'm better at mushroom ID than plants, but I'm always trying to learn more.

I joined our local mycological association (SIMA - the Southern Idaho Mycological Association, now Southern Idaho Mushroom Club) in 2008 and have been humbled by all there is to learn in the world of mycology! I'm a Past President (2020-2022) of the club, so if you're in our area (central to southern Idaho) and are interested in learning more about fungi, let me know!
