AN ACT relating to mushrooms.
SB 19 designates the indigo milk cap mushroom as Kentucky's official state mushroom. The bill creates a new section in Kentucky law to formally name and recognize this specific mushroom species. It does not impose any new regulations, taxes, or requirements on residents, businesses, or state agencies. This is a symbolic designation affecting only Kentucky's official state symbols, with no direct impact on policy or daily life. The bill was introduced to the Senate in January 2026 and referred to the Committee on Committees.
