Mushroom ID and Foraging Workshop – Saturday, August 24th from 2pm-5pm
This workshop includes a 2-3 hour walk in the forest while we discover, properly identify, and discuss foraging for wild edible and medicinal mushrooms. We cover the basics to get you started on what could become a lifelong passion and hobby of yours! We discuss prime habitats where specific mushrooms occur, why and what mushrooms do ecologically, and a thorough discussion on safety precautions as well as practical harvesting/preservation techniques. Lastly, we will go over several outdoor mushroom propagation techniques and show you some simple wild mushroom cooking techniques that we all will sample!
