Mushroom Workshop and Walk with mushroom expert Mark Albert
Sunday, December 6, 12-noon at Redwood Valley Outdoor Education Project (see directions in article below)
COME JOIN THE FUN!!!
The Redwood Valley Outdoor Education Project will host a Fall Mushroom Workshop and Walk led by local mushroom expert Mark Albert on Sunday, December 6, from 10-12 noon. The public is invited to come learn about the essential role that fungi play in an oak woodland ecosystem and meet some of our local mushrooms. With the help of Dave Bengston another local mushroom authority, Mark will bring a wide variety of mushrooms to share. Participants will have the opportunity to explore the mixed woodlands at the RVOEP to see what mushrooms are up. Beginning mushroom enthusiasts and veterans should find this a stimulating morning.
The workshop is free, but donations will benefit the RVOEP. The RVOEP is a community-supported project of the Ukiah Unified School District and provides outdoor environmental education programs to over 2000 students each year. Pre-registration is not required. The RVOEP is located at 8301 Pinecrest Drive in Redwood Valley. Pinecrest Drive begins directly across from the Redwood Valley Elementary School. Call 485-0690 or 485-1437 for further information. If the weather is stormy on December 6, the workshop will be postponed until Sunday, December 13.
