Chris Lawrence opens spring gobbler season with two guests covering very different sides of outdoor life in West Virginia. Kelly McCurdy, district biologist for the National Wild Turkey Federation, details a new $820,000 multi-year agreement with the West Virginia DNR to improve public land access and habitat — beginning with road improvements on Sleepy Creek WMA — and covers the NWTF's plans for prescribed burning, native warm season grass conversion, and brood range restoration on WMAs across the state. McCurdy also addresses the recent end of the NWTF's private lands program through the NRCS and new legislation allowing prescribed fire on private land. Ed Daniels of Shady Grove Botanicals in Mill Creek then joins for a full conversation on morel mushroom hunting — covering how to find, identify, harvest, and preserve them — along with a broader look at medicinal mushrooms, wild ginseng season, and other edible and therapeutic species found in West Virginia's woods this time of year.
