On August 14 from 9:30 – 12:30, go a little further and learn about some medicinal mushrooms, and more about mushroom features and methods of identification. Our talk, with visuals, will cover additional types of mushrooms to take you further on your mushrooming journey. Afterwards, we will go out on the New England Botanic Garden trails to find some wild mushrooms!
Wear good walking footwear, insect repellant, and bring a cloth or paper bag or basket. Rachel will also have wild-foraged mushroom tincture, wild herbal salve for poison ivy and eczema, wildflower jelly, natural lotions and other wild-crafted goods for purchase before and after the lecture.
