The Morel is one of the most sought after wild mushrooms in the world. Not only are they found in the U.S. they are found worldwide. They morels are found mostly in wooded areas buy also can be found along roadsides,fence rows,riverbanks,orchards,and even in cemetery’s. In The U.S. we have the dead elms that are highly prized areas. The elms were hit with Dutch Elm Disease years back. When you find an elm with the bark coming off there is a good chance you will find morels in that area. But don’t be afraid to search places that you might not think you will find them. I have found morels in a friends backyard. This was a total surprise to me,but just goes to show that you can find them about anywhere. Just keep looking and you to will find these sought after mushrooms.

Happy Hunting
