Mushroom harvest rules

Rules vary

Bureau of Land Management public lands

BLM lets you collect reasonable amounts of some renewable plant resources for noncommercial use outside developed sites, but mushrooms are not named. Check with the local field office.

43 CFR 8365.1-5(b) allows collecting reasonable amounts of commonly available renewable resources such as flowers, berries, nuts, seeds, cones and leaves for noncommercial purposes, except at developed recreation sites or where prohibited and posted. Other collection of forest products falls under 43 CFR part 5500, which may require a permit. Mushrooms are not named, so rules vary by field office; check with the land manager.
