Greetings!  Has anyone on here successfully inoculated Morels in their local woodlands?  When I visited Ohio years ago they were very abundant in the local area.  I've casually searched around here (Tennessee) without success.  Next year I want to take a local foraging class to be rightfully exposed to it, as I am a Floridian and not native to this area.  I've got what I consider to be a perfect climate/area for them and I wanted to help/encourage nature along, ha!  Any tips or ideas would be greatly appreciated!

Blessings...Hugh

What I’ve heard about morels up in Tennessee is that they like tulip poplar. Here, they need ash trees to thrive (almost always. I did find one next to a small slippery elm this spring.) It seems to vary wildly by the region. Some say they’re actually different species that look identical but have different habitats.
 
That feels good. Thanks. Here's a tiny ad:
