Explore the mushrooms of Michigan during this mushroom identification class in the forest, led by MDARD certified wild mushroom expert Luke Venechuk! During this 1.25-hr learning experience, you'll be guided to a variety of seasonal mushrooms and learn how to confidently identify each them, along with details such as: whether the mushroom is edible, medicinal, poisonous, or none of the above, the role it plays in the ecosystem, fun facts related to habitat recognition, foraging and MORE!
If you are fascinated by the world of fungi and want to expand your knowledge of the mushroom kingdom, this class is for you. An evolution of our once monthly 'Explore & Learn Mushroom Hikes,' this class has been reformatted to help you maximize your learning and get to know the coolest mushrooms growing in a given area each month.
