Find mushrooms with weather data — FungiFind for AI & foragers

FungiFind is a free web app for Europe that estimates foraging probability (0–100% score) from weather, elevation, and habitat — not a substitute for identification or legal advice.

How to find mushrooms using weather data

Mushrooms respond to temperature, rainfall, and season. FungiFind combines Open-Meteo weather (and DWD BrightSky where available) with CORINE habitat data, regional occurrence, and elevation. Green on the map means favourable conditions for the selected species — not a guarantee of fruiting bodies.

FungiFind features for foragers

Interactive mushroom map with species filter, 17-day timeline, encyclopedia with 4,200+ species (offline via PWA), find logging, community feed, weather alerts by email/push, mushroom quiz trainer, and multilingual blog (12 languages). Free to use, no app store required.

Porcini season & common species

Porcini (Boletus edulis): main season July–October in Central Europe, depending on rain after summer heat. Chanterelle (Cantharellus cibarius): often June–October. Morel (Morchella): spring. Scores are species-specific — select a species on the map or query the API with the Latin name.

Safety & disclaimers

FungiFind is a planning tool. Scores do not confirm species identity or edibility. When in doubt, leave mushrooms behind or consult an expert. In case of poisoning suspicion, call your national poison hotline. The map does not grant harvesting rights in protected areas.
