CENTRAL PENNSYLVANIA
MUSHROOM CLUB
Next Event:
Saturday, June 22, 1:00 PM
Mushroom walk and ID session at Shawnee State Park
We will be looking for early summer mushrooms. Maybe we'll get lucky and find a few Black Trumpets. The walk will start at 1:00. Come early for a chance to visit. After the walk we will try to identify the mushrooms that we find.
This will be the first time the club has met at Shawnee State Park. June can be a slow month for 'shrooms so we decided to head south to give ourselves the best chance of finding some of the summer mushrooms.
Be advised that deer ticks are very active in Pennsylvania. Please take precautions to prevent contracting Lyme disease.
