This September we’ll be fallin’ for fungi as we learn about the role of mushrooms and mycelial networks in our environment and in Westcrest Park. We’ll also be clearing the way for planting new native plants. Come learn and work with us as we usher in the beginning of Fall and mushroom season!
All skill levels are welcome! Please wear clothing that can get dirty, including long sleeves, long pants, and closed-toed shoes. We’ll be working rain or shine, so everyone is encouraged to bring rain gear if the weather forecast says chance of rain. We’ll be providing the tools, snacks and water. Bring work gloves if you have them, and we’ll have some folks can borrow as well. We hope you’ll join us!
