COMA 2024 Clark Rogerson Foray
For 2024, we will be at the Berkshire Hills Eisenberg Camp, an accessible 460-acre facility in Copake, NY. The secluded site features a private lake and comfortable ("motel-style") accommodations. Foraging on campus and in nearby parks is reliably outstanding. We usually identify and record close to 400 species and will have a team of mycologists and expert identifiers on hand throughout the event.
The Ursula Hoffmann scholarship is intended to support the recipient's attendance at COMA's annual Clark Rogerson Foray.

Next Monday's week's ID meeting will be happening online.
Rather than using our usual format we're going to experiment a little. Since there are fewer fungi to be found this time of year, we'll be diving deeper into genera that a lot of people are interested in. This Monday the spotlight is on the milky caps - Lactarius and Lactifluus, hosted and moderated by the club's own expert Bethany Beech.
Bring your most exciting or confounding milky cap observations and let's figure them out together.
As always we encourage you to use iNaturalist to share your observations - it's a great way to keep track of your finds, and you will be able to participate in these two NYMS projects:
