Greg Marley will present his wealth of knowledge on balancing safely when foraging for wild mushrooms. A slideshow of images will accompany this presentation.

As people build their knowledge and skills to forage and use wild edible and medicinal mushrooms, it is natural to want add more mushrooms to your list. As you move beyond the Foolproof Few, the common, easily-identified mushrooms it becomes even more important to have guidance on choosing wisely and avoiding toxic mistakes. This talk seeks to offer a list of great mushrooms by filtering the recommendations through answering this question so often posed to me: “What is your favorite mushroom?”.

The talk will focus on Maine and New England mushrooms.
