SUMMARY:Springtime Wild Mushroom Identification Workshop and Tasting - SOLD OUT
DESCRIPTION:This is a workshop for the beginner mushroom forager interested in gaining confidence foraging 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 (especially morels)\, and answer any questions. \nAfter the presentation\, we will have a light tasting of springtime mushrooms (morels if I have them!) which includes a brief cooking demo. The mushrooms will be cooked in butter and served on bread with cheese. I’m sorry but there are no substitutions besides removing the bread and 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 one hour.  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.
