NAMA are curious as to what producers and distributors are naming the mushrooms they are selling. To get a better handle on which fungi in stores across North America are currently being erroneously named and sold, DNAMA would like your help casting a wide net for sampling. We are interested in all mushrooms and mushroom products that can be legally purchased and mailed across state lines including, but not limited to foods (dried, frozen, canned, fresh-foraged, fresh-cultivated) and supplements (whole and powdered). The mushroom products must be minimally processed (no extracts, tinctures, or flavoring agents) and dried if purchased fresh or frozen.
