Fungi / Mushrooms
 

While I applaud you for some of the proposed changes to State Parks regulations that are due to take effect I can not agree to a ban of the foraging for fungi and mushrooms in particular. The picked mushroom is just as much of a fruiting body as any nut or berry that is now to be allowed to harvested in the parks for personal use. I find these two changes to be contradictory of each other and incognizant.
