Description
Advance your mushrooming knowledge by learning about some medicinal mushrooms, like Chaga and Lion's Mane, and more about mushroom features and methods of identification. Rachel’s talk with visuals will cover additional types of mushrooms to take you further on your mushrooming journey. Afterwards, we will go out on the Museum trail to find some wild mushrooms!
