This class is designed for beginner to intermediate mushroom enthusiasts. Basics of the identification process and general mushroom understanding will be discussed, and then there will be a foray into the nearby woods in search of seasonal fungi. Your instructor will provide fresh wild specimens, and participants are encouraged to bring in fresh specimens of their own finding.
