Mushroom ID Walk with Philadelphia Mycology Club
Sun. April 19th, 10:00-12:00pm
The Willows Park
490 Darby Paoli Rd.
Villanova, PA 19085
Join us on the trail at The Willows! We'll wind through a few ecosystems and search for the fungi hiding in them. We'll find and identify the mushrooms as we go, making sure to discuss their key identifying features.
The instructor is Sam Bucciarelli, a land management professional with a passion for ecology, especially as it pertains to fungi and the role they play in helping our ecosystems thrive. She grew up in the NJ Pinelands, but she has spent the last 6 years learning about the flora, fauna, and funga in the Greater Philadelphia area. She spends her free time sharing that passion with others. She is a Land Stewardship Coordinator with the Schuykill Center for Environmental Education and the Vice President of the Philadelphia Mycology Club.
NOTE: The rain date for this event will be on Sunday, June 2nd at 10am.
