Thursday, October 27, 1:00 pm – 5:00 pm – Fungi in the Field

by

This New England Wild Flower Society class for the beginning mushroom enthusiast will head right into the field to look for fungi. You will learn to identify mushrooms by finding their habitats. If you can find mushroom substrates, you can find mushrooms! Many of the species we’ll see will be very small—hidden under logs, in leaf litter, or in cracks in tree bark. Bring a hand lens and please note: this course is not focused on edibles. The class will be led by Lawrence Millman at Garden in the Woods in Framingham on Thursday, October 27 from 1 – 5. $38 for NEWFS members, $46 for nonmembers. Register online at www.newfs.org.
