Shaggy Mane Mushrooms by Michael Kensinger

Join JVAS President Michael Kensinger and members for a slow saunter around Reservoir Park in Tyrone to explore and identify wild mushrooms, in addition to wildflowers, birds, and other inhabitants. This is a fairly easy hike, with one area where we cross a stream by stepping on stones. We will look for different groups of mushrooms, from gilled mushrooms, polypores, boletes, and coral fungi. Consider bringing a packed lunch and we can snack afterward at a pavilion.

What to bring: Light lunch/snack/drink. Comfortable shoes.

In the event of inclement weather or otherwise dangerous conditions, Field Trip Chair Michael Kensinger reserves the right to cancel. Feel free to call or text Michael at (814) 505 – 3410 if you are unsure whether or not a field trip has been cancelled, or even just to check. You can also email him at [email protected].
