Mushroom ID Classes - Fall Series

Fall is coming and rains will be starting, so it's a great time to improve your mushroom ID skills! Signups have begun for FFSC's fall mushroom ID classes. The four-class series will be led by Phil Carpenter on the first and fourth Wednesday: October 2, 23, November 6 and November 26 (changed to Tuesday due to proximity to Thanksgiving). You must be a FFSC member to attend this free course. See ffsc.us/classes for more intel.

Classes will be held at the Santa Cruz Natural History Museum on East Cliff Drive in Santa Cruz from 7-9 pm. We'll be learning how to use the field guide Mushrooms Demystified by David Arora to put names on mushrooms that attendees and the instructor will be bringing in. As in the past, we are taking sign-ups only from people interested in staying for all of the classes, schedules allowing, since many people have expressed interest in the classes and we can only accommodate 20-22 people.

If you are interested, please become a member if you are not a member yet and contact Phil Carpenter using a contact link below (visible to members only) stating your interest, how many people you want to sign up and the best email address to use for each person. Class will be filled in order of response. You must be a current (dues paid) member of the Federation in order to take the classes. There is no charge for attending. Note that the last class date will be Tuesday November 26 due to proximity to Thanksgiving.
