How I Do My Research:
I heavily rely on a park's details or an organization that has the information on the plants. It would be a pdf file, on their website, a brochure, etc. inaturalist, Picture Mushroom and PlantNet are great identifying tools.

I am not an expert in botany, but rather 100% an amateur. Please correct me if I make a mistake or if you want to add some more information. And... just because a source SAYS you can eat DOES NOT mean that you absolutely should. Do your research!!! And please take a joke as a joke :)
