Deana Tempest Thomas
Founder, current President
Deana believes it is ALWAYS mushroom season, and now is a good time to go look for mushrooms. She especially enjoys finding small fungi and learning about local ecosystems. If you ask her what her favorite mushroom is, she will say, “Whatever mushroom I happen to be looking at!”
