Many wild mushrooms contain permanent, intensely colored dyes. Join us Saturday, February 1 for a hands-on Mushroom Dye Workshop taught by Alissa Allen. If response is good, we will add another class on Sunday, February 2!
In this 4 hour class, you will learn the simple steps for extracting and harnessing the color-rich pigments found in local mushrooms. Possibilities span the entire spectrum of the rainbow. Cost is $60 for FFSC members, $80 for non-members.
We are sorry, but access to this foray

Join us for this season’s first Quail Hollow Ranch Foray between Felton and Ben Lomond on January 18th!
For years, the FFSC has led forays in this highly productive and diverse area. Amanitas, Boletes, Chroogomphus, Suillus, Trametes and Tremella have all been found here, just to name a few. While there is no guarantee as to how the low levels of rain fall will affect the kinds of fungi we find this year, it promises to be a beautiful hike through varying types of terrain: Shady Oak groves, grassy fields, Manzanita thickets, and Pine trees.
