Will I successfully go mushroom hunting this year?

YES

I've been deep-diving mushrooms for a few years now, from learning about different types to using and cooking them in all kinds of ways. I'm a big fan and when wandering woods I'm so excited when I stumble onto the little clusters fanning off trees and hiding in the dirt. What a magical form of life!

I've learned quite a bit about what to look for, what's safe, what to only admire with my eyes, and what might be delicious but isn't worth the risk. Even though there's infinitely more to learn, I feel like I have enough knowledge and tools to make some good choices and it's time to grow through active practice of safe picks. However, so far I haven't made an intentional trip out to go mushroom hunting and collecting. I'd like to! I'm also a fickle, distractable being who gets caught up in the day-to-day of life; maybe this market will help motivate me. So, will I make it happen? And will I come back with anything edible?

Resolves YES if I make trip(s) out with the intent of finding edible mushrooms and come back with some on any of those trips.

Resolves NO after close if I don't make any trips with the purpose of finding edible mushrooms, if I don't find any, or if I do find some but never on a purposeful hunt.

(Since the comments are inevitable: I do consider many psychedelic mushrooms to be edible for this question's purposes, but even if I stumble across any I'm unlikely to pick them as I'm not so confident in my ability to distinguish many of those varieties from riskier species in my region)

I'll be betting in this market variously to encourage increased trading and motivate myself.
