I appreciate the responses. I was just curious if they grew here. I always read about people picking them in other states, but you never really hear anything about them in La. I understand they are closely guarded secrets when it comes to location. I need to find some to try out and see if they are worth the hype.

They go for a ton of money here in Missouri if you bring them to the cities. But, as another said, they do correlate to trees and it is often pretty easy to find them along waterways. But really it is easy to find them anywhere in lots of forests (edit, forests up here in Missouri).

If you look at growing them it is insanely hard. They need seemingly perfect conditions to pop, which is why no one grows them commercially. A while back, Michigan State (I believe) was trying to grow them but I don't think it's a thing anymore.
