Mushroom Identification for Beginners

Event Description
What are those weird things that pop up in the woods after the rain? Are you mystified by wild mushrooms? Curious? Scared? Or do they make you hungry?
Join a foraging family who hunt, photograph, identify, and love to eat the fungi in New England for a discussion titled Mushroom Identification for Beginners. We will dispel common myths, learn how to safely identify mushrooms with visual clues and guidebooks, and discuss mycophagy, the cooking and eating of wild mushrooms.
The 3 Foragers are a family from southeastern Connecticut who have been identifying, photographing, and cooking with the edible plants and fungi of New England for more than 20 years.
Free! Registration is required.
