Yeah those are woolly Chanterelles. Not good to eat. Toss them. Give us a better pic of the button one in bottom of bag. Also it's a common misconception that cutting allows mushrooms to grow back in the same spot. They aren't asparagus. The mycelium will produce regardless until it runs out of moisture and spores are all used up. Also walking through an area does more damage to the mycelium than picking the mushrooms. It's just cleaner to use a knife. Or so I've learned from lifetime foragers I know and a few hermit cousins of my mom's. I've read it somewhere too in a mushroom study. Your boots are killing the mushroom beds!  :dunno:

Treefarmer, probably bolets and the other ones posted by not selected are definitely cauliflower and regular Chanterelles.

Is it weird that mushroom hunting kinda scares me? Don't get me wrong. I love shrooms. But there are so many different poisonous varieties that are sneakily close to edible ones. Is there a mycologist group that I can contact if I ever do collect that can help me identify?

The secret is to get a good field guide AND to pick with someone experienced.

Great advice. A free mushroom isn't worth sickness or death. But knowledge of the edibles can produce hours of enjoyment in the woods and at home. Kids love mushroom hunting.

My dad would come home with some now and again growing up. None of us kids or mom liked mushrooms. Mom was always skeptical that dad knew which were edible. Dad would cook up a batch and dive in, my mom would eat one evertime. Her philosophy- if you die im going with you.

Most people don't know mushroom ID and Americans tend to be fungophobic because of that ignorance. The young man I hunted with this year previously didn't like to eat mushrooms. Now, he's an addict. As compared to the carcinogenic button mushrooms you can buy at Freddies, wild mushrooms actually have great and varied flavors and textures. And right now, there are a dozen or more edible mushrooms fruiting. And just like meat hunting, there are few things that feel better than providing delicious and free food from the woods for your family. Edible greens in the spring are another source of healthy food. Making a salad for your family with miner's lettuce, lemon balm, wood sorrel and wood violets, mustard greens and flowers, and fireweed is healthy and delicious compared to the salad mixes that come from the produce section.

Discovering Wild Plants (PNW) by Schoffield is a comprehensive guide for foraging plants, roots, berries, etc. I highly recommend it.

I agree it is a great day when you get to bring stuff home from a hunting trip even if not wild game. If you get both even better!
I need to relearn about the edible greens, knew quite a bit 10 years ago forgot much of it.
In God we trust, all others bring cash.
