MycoAdventure: Foraging and Preparing Wild Mushrooms

Get out of the city and under the North Georgia mountain forest canopy to forage for wild mushrooms with Steven Bell of 5th Kingdom.  You’ll learn where to find and how to ID some of the best mushrooms the summer forest brings like the Chanterelle, Chicken of the Woods and Oyster Mushrooms.  We’ll talk about mushroom ecology, sustainable harvesting and end the class with a mushroom cookout/cooking lesson right from our baskets.

Carpool can be arranged from 5th Kingdom by request. Otherwise, we’ll meet at the East Ellijay Ingles parking lot at 1:30 and carpool into the Wildlife Management Area (please see event link for more details). This event will be rain or shine, so wear good shoes and come prepared for sun or rain and a guaranteed good time.
