Local Foray (by )
WHAT:
This walk will concentrate on enjoying and learning a bit about some of our local mushrooms. We will do our best to identify our fungal finds, answer questions, and share knowlage. Depending on the location chosen, there may be some collection allowed, but the main goal will be education. Be prepared for wet or muddy conditions as well as ample poison oak in some areas. Please be prepared to walk a few miles...
