Mushroom Hunting: Gourmet Mushrooms of CT
The Mushroom Hunting Foundation teaches people how to safely enjoy America's many delicious species of wild mushrooms. Immerse yourself in a fascinating hobby with this 2-session class. In the first class, Ryan Bouchard and Emily Schmidt will explain the safety rules of mushroom hunting and the science of mycology through a slide show of all local photography. They will discuss local species of the spring season, focusing on the ones that are "safe for beginners". The second class will be a guided mushroom walk at a special forest location followed by a special cooking session with several gourmet mushroom species, where you'll experience amazing new flavors.
