Fruiting just means "to grow" in this sense. A mushroom is the fruiting body of a fungal/mycelial network, like the apple from an apple tree. And like an apple, the fruit (mushroom) grows from it's host (mycelium) to spread it's spores/genetics.

The basidiocarp is the actually mushroom (fruiting body), the mycelium are the roots.

So when a patch is fruiting, it's producing actually mushrooms which can be harvested.

Just a little side comment, fun fact.

"Speaking of “fruiting,” use of this term for the production of mushrooms requires comment. Strictly speaking, fruiting refers to the production of fruits, which are found only in flowering plants. Because fungi are not plants and mushrooms are not fruit, technically it is incorrect to refer to fruiting of mushrooms. However, because fungi were long thought to be plants, many botanical terms such as fruiting, fruitbodies, and stem, have been applied to them. Similarly, the mushrooms in an area are often referred to as it's mycoflora or mushroom flora." - Mushrooms of the PNW

"Technically... incorrect" fails to recognize that a great many words have multiple uses. Certainly it would be incorrect to believe that fungi are botanically fruits... but the term is not likely to lead anyone to think that. Meanwhile, when a word usage is long established and entirely conventional, there is little use in declaring it wrong. It is no more wrong than such phrasings as "the fruits of your labors" or "be fruitful and multiply".

On the other hand I am a fruit myself, so perhaps I am biased.
