Mushroom and Fungi Walk at McMaster Forest

Prof. Jianping (J-P) Xu, PhD. Department of Biology, McMaster University

In this mushroom foray, we will start by describing features of mushrooms, followed by an interactive Q and A on all things mushrooms and fungi. We will then walk along the trails at McMaster Forest to find and discuss the mushrooms we encounter. Depending on the weather before our foray, we may find plenty of mushrooms (if it has been rainy and not too hot a few days prior to October 1st) or few (if it has been dry and hot). Please dress appropriately for hiking and for the weather, with hiking shoes, long pants, and long-sleeved shirt/jacket. All are welcome and I looking forward to seeing everyone!

NOTE - the trails at McMaster Forest are not universally accessible currently.
