KY-FUNGI Posted August 27, 2017 Report Share Posted August 27, 2017 Hello. I am just getting started mushrooming and am looking for other local enthusiasts. Wish Kentucky had a mycological society. If I am wrong and we have one, please let me know? Thank you, and good luck to everyone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flipjargendy Posted August 27, 2017 Report Share Posted August 27, 2017 Welcome to the forum :-) It feels like I see a lot of posts from KY... maybe its just that the state stands out to me for some odd reason. Have fun hunting... its that time of year! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KY-FUNGI Posted August 28, 2017 Author Report Share Posted August 28, 2017 I went out this AM and found a great Leucoagaricus americanus. Only found one little milky of some sort at a local nature preserve. I didn't want to harvest either since they were so cute so I just snapped photos. Made my first spore print yesterday of some deer mushrooms I found in the yard on some decaying silver maple roots. I guess I have grown tired of old hobbies and need a new focus. Mushrooms will keep me busy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just a couple of central KY folks starting out cultivating businesses to sell. I live off Richmond Road here in Lexington and will hit you up separately on a site IM. Thank you for touching base!

Billy Posted October 3, 2019 Report Share Posted October 3, 2019 Hey @XestyChicken, @KY-FUNGI, and @Josh198484! I have only recently gotten into mushroom hunting but I really love it. I also just moved to Lexington after I graduated college! We should maybe form a group chat or something where we can talk about good places to forage and what-not! Would any of you be interested??

John Clay Posted March 5, 2020 Report Share Posted March 5, 2020 Hey everyone.Ā Ā John Clay here. I live off Richmond Road as well and would love to get something together in regards to mycology/mushroom hunting. Your posts are from several months back, but ifĀ you see this comment, any of you feel free to email me. I actually went out hunting today with some degree of success.Ā Not sure what a mycology group would entail, but it could be fun to get a large group together and go comb somewhere nearby. Daniel Boone/Red River/etc. or , even the outskirts of Jacobson Park right down the street.Ā Ā Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoolWithU Posted April 29, 2020 Report Share Posted April 29, 2020 not sure if this post is even still active, but I am also very VERY new to the hobby and have an extremely large amount of information to learn but mushrooms have always been a bit of an interest to me just because I donāt really understand them š iām on a farm in nicholasville right now and there are quite a few wild ones just in the fields and bushes around here Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dufhart Posted May 11, 2020 Report Share Posted May 11, 2020 I live in Charlevoix; relocated here a year ago.Ā I have been reading and watching a fair amount of online articles, and videos, but what I would really like is to hire a guide.Ā I don't ask them to share any secret locations with me - would love to have guide walkĀ our property with me/us, if possible, or suitable. I reached out to a company in TC (LeelanauAdventures), but email bounces back.Ā Anyone up for the task, or have recommendations/referrals.Ā I realize we haven't had the consecutive warm days & nights required (So I've read), but I'm ready to get ready!
