October 2006 Forays
Sunday, 10/22/2006
Join Cascade Mycological Society members Peg Boulay and Bruce Newhouse for a Fun & Fabulous Forest Fungal Foray and Ecology Encounter on Sunday, October 22. You will never walk through the woods in quite the same way after you learn what is going on under your feet! We’ll go to the Cascades or the Coast to collect for the Mt. Pisgah Mushroom show (one week later), and maybe a bit for our own tables, too. We’ll decide at the rendezvous place (but not until then) if we are going east or west based on latest conditions and reports from whomever arrives. Meet at 9 a.m. at South Eugene High School parking lot. Bring standard mushrooming gear (see: “Foray” for additional details), including a USFS free use mushrooming permit. Call Willamette National Forest Supervisor’s Office 541-225-6300 Monday-Friday 8-4:30, or stop by during those hours to get a mushrooming permit. Call for additional info.
Thursday, 10/26/2006 and Friday, 10/27/2006
Join Anna Moore as she leads forays around the Florence area in a variety of coastal habitats. Help collect specimens for the Mt. Pisgah Mushroom show and have a great time! Caravans will leave the South Eugene High School parking lot at 9:00am on both days and will regroup and meet with Anna in the Florence area. For additional details on the foray contact Grace.
