The annual Mushroom Identification Foray will meet in Moran State Park on Saturday, Oct. 17, at the picnic shelter on the highway by Cascade Lake, at 11 p.m. The underground mycelium is waiting to fruit and rains have started!

Everyone is welcome. Bring some wood for the fire, a lunch, a collection basket, and a mushroom guide if you have one. Wear field clothing appropriate for the weather. After an introduction, the group will go for walks to see what can be found. The fungus that is found will be examined back at the shelter with books and microscopes. The fun should last until about 3 or 4 p.m.

Call Babs at 376-2404 with questions. Copies of “Easy Key to Gilled Mushrooms” will be available for $3 each. Assistance will be offered by Babs McCorison, Robin Rodenberger and Philip Miller.
