Sue Van Hook, Mycologist, will lead us into the woods at one of our Preserves or Forests on the Rensselaer Plateau. Participants will have a chance to develop their field skills in mushroom identification. Bring a basket or bag with stiff sides, a field knife or trowel, and a hand lens if you have one. Registration fee $10/person, kids are free.
Group size for the walk is limited to 25 so it is first paid, first on the list. Directions will be emailed to participants registered 2 weeks before the walk.
