Description

Explore the vastness of kingdom Fungi with this fully illustrated journal for recording your findings on your next mushroom foraging adventure.

Whether you've long been fascinated by fungi or are just beginning your foray into mycology, Dr. Fun Guy's Mushroom Journal and Foraging Guide is your perfect companion. Featuring full-color photos and QR codes linking to additional resources, this volume is as gorgeous as it is handy.

Structured like a guided tour of kingdom Fungi, this journal pairs key facts about individual mushrooms with space for recording the details of your findings, covering tasty edibles like Chicken of the Woods and morels as well as deadly toxic mushrooms like the Death Cap. This journal provides the information you need to safely and effectively forage mushrooms, while helping you to document your finds. Once you've spotted a mushroom, you can log its location, surrounding habitat, morphology, notes on color and texture, and more in the provided blank templates.

In addition to featuring more than forty mushrooms, this journal also includes a selection of "honorable mentions"--mushrooms that aren't as highly sought after but are no less fascinating. These are followed by more blank journaling templates, giving you the freedom to forage for these fungi or any others of your choosing.

Sporting a sturdy yet flexible cover and bound with wire rings for ease of use, this portable journal is ready to accompany you on any mushroom foraging journey.
