Mushrooms and Fungal Ecology

This event is for folks with all levels of mushroom experience. In addition to identifying mushrooms, we will learn the basics of fungal ecology so as to read the landscape and understand where we might find fungal fruiting bodies. We will also consider the natural history of Hoyt Arboretum through a fungal lens: How can fungi help us see changes in the land? How might a mushroom reveal unseen connections between plants, fungi and humans?
