Event Summary
Mushroom Ramble
May 4, Saturday, 8:00-10:00 a.m. at Wickiup Hill
Marty Augustine of the Prairie State Mushroom Club will lead participants on a search for fungus at Wickiup Hill. Meet at the Wickiup Hill Learning Center parking area and be ready to car pool to the Wickiup Hill Natural Area as a starting point. Of course at this time of year, many thoughts will be on the tasty morel mushrooms – though we will see many other kinds of fungi as well. We will learn a bit more about local mushrooms – who knows, maybe someone will even share their favorite spots. Bring a container to collect mushrooms and dress for conditions that may include ticks, mosquitoes or poison ivy.
