Mushroom harvest rules
Rules vary
State wildlife and game areas
No single rule applies; each state sets its own. Check with the state fish and wildlife agency before you pick.
These lands are managed by each state's fish and wildlife or natural resources agency, which sets its own rules. Use the state government directory to find the agency, then check the area's rules or call the local office.
