A SUMMER FOR LOBSTER MUSHROOMS! On forays in June and July, PPMS members find many of the parasitic Hypomyces lactifluorum, a fungus that grows on other species of mushrooms. Considered a choice edible, this fungus is only edible when parasitizing non-poisonous mushrooms. Be sure to see what else is growning nearby!
