Join the Clinton Community Library and the Conservation Advisory Council to look for mushrooms and other fungi! CAC member Nick Sacerdote will share information about what they are, where they can be found, their roles in natural systems, and the basics of fungal identification. After our discussion, we will go on short walk along the Norene Coller Nature Trail to look for and identify local fungi.
Please note: Wear appropriate clothing and footwear. There are grassy paths, with some areas that may be moist, and brushy areas. If it is raining, the walk will be cancelled.
