The first time I ever heard about magic mushrooms was like 8 years ago. I was in the car, my dad was driving. There was a radio station on and they were saying the news and shit. They said "And some teenagers were arrested in this park, partying, etc. They found marijuana and magic mushrooms"
Marijuana I knew. Magic Mushrooms? wtf is this shit? hahaha
but it was 6 years later that i would actively search out what they were all about. Shroomery a hoy!

As a child I had an uncle who was the "black sheep" of the family. He was in and out of jail, mostly on DUIs, and the rest of the family thought he was a general fuck-up (which was probably acurate). One day I remember him talking to my dad about 'magic mushrooms'. He raved about them and as a child I could not figure out what was so great. I remember thinking "Damn, those things must taste good!" 
It wasn't until about 10 years later I figured out what he was talking about!

I heard about them as a little kid, although I was 19 before I tried them. I remember reading about them somewhere.

I was driving down the road with my dad and I saw a sign that said "MAGIC MUSHROOMS" and so I asked him what they were and he was like WHAT?? So surprised that I would know what they were at that age and then I showed him the sign. I have no clue what that sign was for to this day. I think it had a price on it and everything, maybe just some sort of advertising scheme for growing fast gourmets.

i had a teacher that told us about different rituals ancient civilizations did and what they ate/drank for religous purposes. this was either 4th or 5th grade, i dont remember much.
i can vividly remember the first time i heard about LSD. i had smoked pot by sixth grade and when one cop came in and was telling us about drugs, i remember him saying "LSD makes you see things that aren't really there." i was sold.  i can remember wanting to do acid when i was like 13, thank god i didnt until i was 17. it probably would have destroyed my fragile little mind.

I don't know. I must have heard about them as a little kid, because I don't remember but yet I knew what they were before I tried and did research on them.

I had a friend that used to take them. For years she would ask me to take some with her and we even went hunting for them once. I never did though.
Then a couple of years ago I was led to this site and now I know more about them then I ever thought I would.
YAY for the shroomery.
I took mushrooms for the first time a year ago. They were from my own grow. I'm so proud of myself.

Its hard to pinpoint, I'm sure I've heard of them for a long time. But, I think the first I heard of them, and actually took notice/interest is when I was researching MDMA.
I had been going to clubs/raves for 2 or 3 years, knew people around me were doing drugs/etc, so started to research into MDMA on Erowid, and as a result - I started to poke into other substances on the site to see what was up.
However, I first heard of LSD when I was in grade 4 or so.

I was 12 years old. My sisters friends talked me into drinking some tea. I had no idea what a hallucinogen was. Had never even smoked pot at the time. I had drank alcohol a half dozen times. It was an unexpected experience, and it is one that I chased for years to come...

Dude, you paid attention in D.A.R.E.?
We had an D.A.R.E. speaker named Officer MacFarland who had a squeaky voice like Bobby from Bobby's World.
He always had a beet-red complexion like he'd just finished smoking freebase.
You could not pay attention to the guy, he just exuded hilarity.
I read about shrooms in 1989 or 88 in Andrew Weil's book "From Chocolate to Morphine" and another, similar book.
They had it in our Middle School library.
In those days, the PTA hadn't caught on to the sinister purpose of freedom of press

When I was in middle school, I saw kids wearing these mushroom necklaces and talking about "shrooms," and I wondered what was so great about mushrooms. At that time, I thought that mushrooms were either edible or poisonous. I had no idea that some of them were hallucinogenic, and even if I did, I probably would've been scared of them(I had yet to try weed at the time).
