SUMMARY:Springtime Wild Mushroom Identification Workshop and Tasting - CANCELLED
DESCRIPTION:This is a workshop for the beginner mushroom forager interested in gaining confidence identifying common\, springtime mushrooms. \nWe will start the day indoors with a presentation discussing identification of the common\, edible springtime mushrooms\, including oysters\, pheasant backs\, and morels. We will also discuss foraging basics\, safety\, tips/tricks to successful foraging\, and answer any questions. \nAfter the presentation\, we will have a light tasting of springtime mushrooms which includes a brief cooking demo. The mushrooms may be cooked in butter and served with bread and cheese. I’m sorry but there are no substitutions besides removing the bread and/or cheese. \nAfter the presentation and tasting\, we will wander down the trail and into the woods looking for and discussing any mushrooms we see along the way\, which will last approximately 1-1.5 hours.  We will also focus some time on tree identification.  Theodore Wirth Park unfortunately does not allow foraging\, so we can’t pick mushrooms but we can certainly take pictures and memories!  \nThe event is non-refundable and the class will happen rain or shine\, but in cases of severe weather or other unforeseen circumstances\, you will be able to use your credit for a future event.

SUMMARY:Morel Mushroom Hunting - Online Class
DESCRIPTION:Even if you’ve never mushroom hunted before or seen a morel in person\, this online class will leave you confident and prepared to find and identify morels before the season begins! This is the perfect time to learn with just enough time to start scouting out your spots. We will cover everything you need to know in order to find morels\, including where to look\, when to look\, tips and tricks\, identification\, look-alikes\, foraging basics\, safety\, cooking\, and tree identification. \nWe will focus on the common yellow morels\, touch a little on black morels. We will not be discussing burn morels. My experience is morel hunting in the southern half of Minnesota\, which will be applicable to surrounding states as well. \nEven if you are not able to attend at this time\, you can sign up and watch the presentation at a later date that is more convenient for you. Attendees will receive an electronic copy of the recording and presentation to keep after the presentation. \nA link for the class will be emailed to attendees at least 24 hours prior to the event.

SUMMARY:Winter Tree ID Workshop
DESCRIPTION:SOLD OUT – CHECK OUT OUR SUMMER TREE ID CLASS ON JUNE 10! More info at chickofthewoods.com/events. \n*This class will be a combination of indoors and outdoors and does not require any prior tree identification knowledge.* \nLearn how to identify trees in winter! And from a distance! Tree shape\, coloring\, bark patterns\, habitat\, and twigs all help conclude what kind of tree we are looking at. Mastering your tree identification skill is useful for many reasons\, but our favorite reason is to improve your ability to find mushrooms.  We will learn to identify native trees found in the twin cities metropolitan area\, and focus on those that have prime edible mushrooms associated with them. \nWe will begin by meeting indoors for about an hour to discuss tree types and features that will help differentiate one from another.  The presentation will include the basics of tree features and identification of the elm\, oak\, cottonwood\, ash\, and box elder and the mushrooms that are associated with those trees. However\, we will identify many other trees along our walk. We will spend extra time on the elm tree\, which is important for finding morel mushrooms.  After the discussion\, we will take a slow walk through the woods\, staying on trail\, and stopping to discuss trees along the way. The walk will be about 1 mile long and last 1 – 1.5 hours. \nFood and drink will be available for purchase from Mill Valley Market (located inside the Trailhead building) during the presentation. \nYou will receive a free tree identification scroll that will be helpful for identification while out in the woods. Bring a sharpie to make notes on your scroll. \nEvent will be held rain\, snow or shine\, but will be postponed for severe weather\, which includes temperatures less than 10 degrees Fahrenheit\, extreme wind\, or unsafe driving conditions. No refunds\, but credit will be given for a future event if cancellation is needed.
