An outdoor adventure for those interested in learning how to forage for wild\, edible mushrooms.  We will first take about one hour to discuss foraging basics\, safety\, tips/tricks to successful foraging\, cover species of interest\, and answer any questions.  Then we will wander down the trail and into the woods looking for\, discussing\, and harvesting any edible mushrooms we find.  We will meet back where we started to wrap up and go over what we found and answer any last minute questions.  No experience necessary.

Interesting in learning more? \nIn addition to private foraging adventures\, we also offer educational classes on wild mushrooms\, edible plants\, and tree identification. These classes are a great way to deepen your knowledge of the natural world\, whether you’re just getting started or looking to expand your skills. Some of our most popular class topics include springtime mushrooms\, summer mushrooms\, fall mushrooms\, tree identification\, and edible plants and berries—with the option to combine plants\, berries\, trees\, and/or mushrooms into one session. We can teach online or indoors any time of year – or teach outdoors April through November.

We tailor the content to the season and the interests of your group\, making it a flexible and engaging learning experience. Pricing starts at $200 for up to a 1-hour class.

SUMMARY:Who's That Tree?
DESCRIPTION:Find More Mushrooms by Knowing Your Trees  \nEver spend hours wandering the woods unsure where to look for mushrooms? Learning tree identification solves that problem. When you know which trees host your favorite edible mushrooms\, you stop guessing and start finding. \nIn this class\, Chick of the Woods will teach simple\, practical tree identification techniques that go beyond leaf shape\, with a focus on trees that support choice edible mushrooms. You’ll learn what trees deserve your attention and which ones you can pass by. \nA few days before the walk\, you’ll receive an exclusive video covering tree ID basics and five key mushroom-hosting trees: oak\, elm\, box elder\, cottonwood\, and ash. This prep work means less lecture and more hands-on learning in the woods. \nThe in-person portion is a fun\, guided walk on established trails (about 1.5–2 hours)\, practicing real-time tree identification and connecting trees to the mushrooms that grow with them. \nYou’ll leave feeling more confident\, capable\, and equipped to forage smarter for years to come—and it makes a thoughtful\, well-loved gift for nature lovers. \nWho this class is for \n\nBeginner and intermediate mushroom foragers\nNature lovers curious about trees and fungi\nGardeners and outdoor educators\nAnyone tired of guessing where mushrooms grow\nA unique\, practical gift for the outdoorsy person in your life\n\nHeld rain or shine\, with weather adjustments as needed.
