Introduction to Mushrooming with Wild Foods Foraging Guide, Rachel Goclawski

 Mushrooming can be a fun and safe hobby if you know the guidelines. Rachel will get you started on your mushrooming journey with an interactive visual presentation, followed by a walk on the Museum trail to find some beginner and novice-level mushrooms! Wear good walking footwear, insect repellent, and bring a cloth or paper bag or basket for collection, and a pocket knife or shears.
