Turkey Tail, Chicken of the Woods, and Scrambled Egg Slime. We aren’t talking poultry here. Get your camera out rather than your deep-fryer, and join us for our fall mushroom hunt with master mycologist William Needham. Let’s wander the trails to search for fungi that catch our eyes with unique coloring or gill placement and our ears with their odd name combinations.
Remember
- Our meeting location can be found in your registration confirmation email when payment is complete.
- Dress according to the weather. Layers of clothing work best. Include a hat for sun protection or warmth, depending on the season.
