Welcome back to Fungi Town! 

One of the very best ways to learn about mushrooms is to go out and find them. But once you do, how do you know what you've got? How do you know if it's poisonous? Where should you look to find more of them? To answer any of those questions, you'll need to get a proper mushroom ID and on this episode of Fungi Town, we'll find out how to do just that!
