WHAT:
WHEN:
WHERE:
Douglas Smith is a local amateur mycologist that has hunted mushrooms around the world. He photographs mushrooms where ever he goes and these photos are posted online, and have appeared in field guides, journals, and the National Geographic. In 2009 he had a chance to move to France, on the border of Switzerland, and lived there for two years.
During that time he was a member of La société mycologique de Genève, and did a large amount of mushroom hunting in the area. In this talk he will discuss his experiences in the area, in terms of the mushrooms found, but also in terms of how people run a mushroom group in the area. As part of this, he was able to compare mushrooms from Europe, and from California, and he will present some of those comparisons.
