We see the mushrooms but they are only the fruiting bodies of often times very large colonies of fungus buried under ground. You could think of the mushroom as the flower of the fungus and in the same way that you would not be able to pick and plant a flower, you can not pick and plant a mushroom. You could theoretically plant the spores produced on the mushroom (they look like dust coming off of the gills on the underside of the mushroom) but then you have to have the right conditions to grow the fungus, the right substrate and so on and so forth. Your best bet would be to leave the mushroom in the park and if you want to bring it home I recommend just taking a picture.
