The mushrooms we notice are just the visible expression of this much larger underground world.
A Lawn Is More Alive Than It Looks
The next time you see several white mushrooms popping up through your grass, you may want to pause before reaching for a chemical treatment.
Ask yourself what the lawn has experienced recently.

Are there old leaves, mulch, compost, or grass clippings nearby?
Does the soil stay wet?
Are the mushrooms appearing in the same location repeatedly?
