WAITLIST Beginner Mushroom Identification with Maria Pinto

Cost of Admission: Members free, suggested donation of $10 for non-members

This is an in-person event.

Come take a walk in the woods where we'll learn about the habits and jobs of the fungi we find! We'll discuss what mushrooms are, learn how to target hunts to find specific species, go over best practices for collection, work with dichotomous keys, and more! Come prepared to explore slowly and do some close looking.
