Join us for our online ID meeting on Monday, August 28. Come share what you've found, see what others have found or to ask more general questions about anything fungi-related.
Please join us for a pop-up walk in Cunningham Park, Queens this Sunday!
We don't have a scheduled walk programmed for Labor Day weekend so we'll be checking in on what's going on New York City parks. Cunningham Park has lots of ponds and downed wood so it should be a good walk for wood-decaying fungi.
But ponds also mean mosquitoes, lots of them! We recommend bringing a full armory of bug repellents and protective clothing.
If you've never been on a mushroom walk with us before, here is what to expect. We highly recommend using the iNaturalist app to document the fungi you find. Find out how to use it here.
NYMS community partnership coordinator, herbalist, educator and forager Journei Bimwala will lead a captivating kids' expedition this Saturday September 30 in Pelham Bay Park.
Fun activities will include Mushroom Spore Printing Mushroom hunting, Mushroom Dissection, Mushroom Stamping and a Murder mushroom mystery! Kids will discover different fungal lifestyles and the various roles that fungi play in nature.
