Where I live mushrooms from the market are ridiculously expensive. That's why it's so common to go mushroom picking yourself. It's a nice outdoors-y way to spend your time and it's not that difficult if you get a primer from someone seasoned at it. And some mushrooms you'll just find a ton without much effort.

Random thought - this is a rare case where survivorship bias works in my favor. The best mushroom mentors really are the ones that haven't died.

Or at the very least, the very worst mushroom mentors aren't around to teach me...
