The only 'scrooms I've ever found in our climate that I trusted eating is Chantrelles. They are considered a host mushroom because you usually find them in moist to wet areas under Water Oaks. Ideal habitat in the Deep South.
The last time I hunted the Alexacarri Plantation I found a bunch. By the time we finished picking them we had a little over seven pounds.
By the way, at the time, wholesale price was around $90 a pound.
