The Beginning of the Mushroom Trail in Hawaii

Hawaii is home to a culturally diverse population with people from nearly all of the continents and many different ethnic groups. The diversity of cultures is reflected in the food. All different kinds of restaurants can be found around Honolulu and a wide variety of food can be bought at the many farmer's markets in the city. Many species and varieties of mushroom (i.e. fungi) can be bought and eaten more so than I've ever seen before. So being a mycologist and a person who likes to document things, I'm going to document all of my fungal encounters while in Hawaii. Some will be of the edible kind while others will be of the fungi found in the environment such as on a hike. Enjoy the trip!
