morels grow in woody, shady areas. They come up from the ground. It doesn’t sound like what you have are morels.
Does anyone have a picture of the thing the morels grow in. I found what I think from the looks here a morel mushroom but the little container that it came out of is like an egg in looks and is full of ucky stuff on the inside. The first time I saw one I thought it was an egg from something. Does any of this make any sense to anyone? These things are growing in my yard and I am very concerned what they are.
Looking for spors for Morel Mushrooms,,, can anyone give a good Location to find them,,, Am located inside the Lansing/Flint/Saginaw Triangle…Please contact me at Chris Lowry on facebook, or lowrycc@yahoo.com,,, thanks ahead of time for the reply
My brother and my Dad go out picking when they are first apearing in Wisconsin and picked about 200 sum morels. They are very good to eat too!
I live in Traverse City and havent found a single morel. BUNK
My very best friend just dropped off a shopping bag of morels. Of course, this is a treasure beyond words, and for a mushroom picker all these these years, I have never seen a “real” morel in my life.
Can you advise me what I could do to preserve these treasures for the months to come. Should I dry them, (how) and would freezing them be the best way to preserve them? Should I boil them firist, before freezing them for future use?
There has never been a year like this one in all my 49 years of life here in Ohio, only had one skillet full, with all the snow we had you would think there would have been an abundance,just wish one time in life I could find some morels like the pictures we see on morels .com wishful in OHIO!!!!!!
is it worth comeing up there from southern ohio ? i always come up around this time petosky area?
I am looking in Harrison, will I fin any Morels now 5/10/2010
Hi, my husband and i are heading up to the Vanderbilt area this coming weekend. Anyone having any luck up there?
I just found what looks like a morel in my yard. Are there look alikes and how do you tell?
3 days of looking and found 68 morels most of them were smaller blondes but today i found 6 jumbo’s all under one dead elm tree just off the side of the road in eastern washtenaw county mi. The tallest one is bigger than a 20 oz. pop bottle

the morels have not been plentiful north of petoskey, but have heard some south of petoskey recently. It poured rain last night most of emmet county. so we are hitting the woods hard now!
Just picked about two lbs. of goldens in Saginaw. Just fry them up with butter and you will think your tastebuds have gone to heaven!!!
Yes, the mushrooms are out. I recommend Chandler Hill Road just north of Boyne Falls, out towards Atlanta on M-32 on and off of Meridian Line Road, or the N/E of the Pigeon River Forest, Tin Shanty area.
Thx for sharing the location photo as well as your bounty photo! I’ve not had ANY luck in west KY, but I am still hopeful.
Can anyone please explain to me what exactly morels are? I live in MI and everyone wants to go looking for them. What are they and what do you do with them?
please take me with you bad year down here.
Are the moral out in Northern Mich (Traverse City, Petoskey Area)?
I have been out everyday found about 200 in the past three weeks but now they are drying up I’m hoping that they are not done here in OHIO but I would love to plan a trip to mich just one time fulfill my dream of finding that many in one day that would be awesome yours truly Tamara very dedicated HUNTER
You find them all in the Waterford area? Lived here fir 7-8 years and always empty handed! Looked this year again and got lucky, but only found a dozen or so. Hubby is up north now, but my son was bummed he had to stay back. I am supposed to bring him out looking here but I am convinced it’s all on private land!
how sweet it is : )
Would you please let me go with you just once, I have been hunting all my life and have never found morels like that all together.
