Whoa whoa whoa back the fuck up. Are you telling me that high end restaraunts outsource to shroom hunters?!?! So shroom hunting is a real job that probably pays OK?! Those morels are so good. Well I am gonna be looking at careers in shroom hunting then. I am going for a major in Plant science after years of dodging school. i will be getting my major right when this marijuana industry is moving full steam into regulation and legalization, and a little shroom hunting side job wont hurt. Unless Shroom Hunting is a full time gig with benifits, then I will just shroom hunt in tall frumpy wizards hat.

People pay top dollar for truffles.

Truffles are difficult to find and very expensive as a result! In 1994, black truffles sold for $350 to $500 a pound. In the United States, edible truffles are collected in the forests of Oregon and Washington. In Europe, most truffles are collected in France and Italy.

It is a large business, I know folks who can make half a year's income in 6 weeks being out in the woods. There are a number of mushrooms that have yet to be cultivated - and they bring a nice price.

If you know what you're doing it can be exceptionally lucrative, but you need to know where to look and the people who have spots are loathe to share them with you.
