My friend Sam Delventhal was out 8 hours today searching for morels. Sam scored 12 pounds. He stopped by to give me a pound tonight. The going rate at the local gas stations is 20 dollars a pound. The gas stations sell them for 25-28 pounds. This is quite normal until the Morel Mushroom Days are finished this weekend in Muscoda. I have seen them going for 30-35 dollars a pound at the Madison Farmer's Market. Sam says there is about 10 more days of morel hunting left.
