IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTICE
Mushby is an educational tool designed to assist with mushroom identification. Never consume any wild mushroom based solely on an app identification. Always cross-reference with multiple sources and consult an experienced forager or mycologist before eating any wild fungi. Some mushrooms are deadly poisonous and can appear very similar to edible species.
