I found some mushrooms in Fall Run park near by some chicken mushrooms, however, I can’t identify the non chicken mushrooms. Can I have a phone number and name of someone to ask? Our friend, Dick Dougall, is no longer with us.He was our go to mushroom expert!

I’m new to this interest and eager to learn.
