Polypores on trees are the best place to start. ganoderma applanatum (artist conk) is easy to identify (good for staph and e coli specifically, but an overall good immune booster) Turkey tail grows everywhere. Chaga you might find, but personally the over harvesting saddens me. Cultivation of fungi I recommend you get your confidence up with Garden Giant (AWESOME FOR VEGGIES plus you get twice the harvest from the same area!) and Oyster can be grown on coffee grounds. Turkey tail is also extremely easy to grow and if you get your confidence up... Lion's Mane and Reishi are divine. TSC is surprisingly good (compared to the Agrochemeyseeds I get here) but I know what you mean... thank god for mail order!
Oh and you might even be able to get someone to show you what 'Shrimp of the woods' looks like some day, you can batter them and they taste just like popcorn shrimp!
