CANCELLED Fungus Walk with The New York Mycological Society
November 2 @ 10:00 am - 2:00 pm
- This event has passed.
This event has been cancelled due to lack of rain.
Join us as we partner with The New York Mycological Society to hunt for fungi in all its many forms. Learn how to find and identify fungi as well as their essential role in the ecosystem. Bring paper bags for collecting specimens, a hand lens, a knife, a tackle box (optional), water and a lunch.
We highly recommend using the iNaturalist app (IOS, Android) to document the fungi you find. Find out how to use it here.
If you’ve never been on a mushroom walk with us before, here is what to expect. We look forward to seeing you there!
Location: Icahn Stadium
