I sold some for the first time ever last year. I took some of my bountiful harvest from Indiana to the Boyne Mushroom Festival. I was a little short on cash for the kids to go on the carnival rides, and a nice gentleman from Seattle wanted some to take back to his friends in the U.P. I had always struggled with the ethics of selling morels, but I justified it with doing it for my kids and helping out someone who did not have any or a means of getting them (the only morels up at the time were thumbnail size greys).

LZYLIGHNING yes your right that is what i was trying to say, i had mentioned i should have waited and put it together a little , better i am talking of the people who come on and juts tear up the land, and scavenge it until there is nothing left. I don't have any issues with any one making a little cash on the side, but people like us don't go out and trash our areas we actually preserve a lot of our areas while were out. Its like micheal said about the people coming in and tearing the place up and ruining it for future use. Thank you for putting it in better words for me :)

I'm with you on the way it's done sometimes, is messed up. I just hadn't got that as the point of the first post. Anyone who rakes the area is rather ignorant to the idea of preserving nature and wildlife, these people just shouldn't be allowed in the woods.

It is sad that a large portion of humanity cannot see that we need to protect our earth.
