Join us at the Bradner Preserve trailhead at 10 a.m. for a fun and educational fungal foray with the Rhode Island Mycological Society! We'll divide into small teams and explore the trails, hunting for the diverse fungi that call the preserve home. After about an hour of searching, we'll reconvene at the trailhead to gather around the ID table. There, we’ll share our collections, record our discoveries, and discuss the fascinating fungi we've found.
PLEASE bring water as well as a light snack for yourself and bug spray as well. Wear appropriate clothing [ticks!].
Children are always welcome but PLEASE no pets [yes even the well-behaved ones] at this fungal frolic - we would like to focus on the mushrooms!
*Please be aware that this is not a foraging walk and we are not collecting mushrooms to eat them! This is to document species and their ecology.*
Registration is limited to 20 participants
If you sign up and later realize you cannot attend, please reach out, so we can give your space to another person.
