What's Happening in Seattle, WA…

Seattle invited to discover more about Mushroom Mania

The damp and cool autumn months in Seattle is time when mushrooms are easy to find, and an event that will teach people how to find and recognize the different species that can be found in the local area.

A hike has been planned for the area that will help those who take part discover the hobby of finding and identifying mushrooms, and will be led by experienced foragers who are experts in mycology, which is the study of fungi such as mushrooms, puffballs, bracket fungi, and witches’ butter. It is geared for those who are age 13 and up, and it will see the group take to the woods rain or shine.

As the participants follow the trails, they will have an opportunity to learn more about the role fungi play in the ecology of the area’s environment. The guides will also share details about how those who are really interested in the hobby can learn more and come together with others who share their enthusiasm. It will be led by members of the Kitsap Peninsula Mycological Society. A printing services provider can supply simple field guides for an event like this.

This hike, which will see people take to the woods to learn more about mushrooms, will be held on November 12. The ticket price will be $5 each, and it will take place in Bainbridge Island’s IslandWood. More information has been made available on the Islandwood website.
