Introduction to Foraging for Mushrooms Class

Join the Assabet Village Food Co-op for our next fundraising class held Sunday April 12th from 2-3pm in Maynard: Introduction to Foraging for Mushrooms.

This is a beginner’s class for people interested in safely foraging for mushrooms. We will look at a select number of easily identified mushrooms found in the Maynard area and examine how to safely store, prepare, and cook them. We will consider mushroom hunting from a historical perspective and address safety protocols. Along the way, we will also consider foraging from nutritional, ecological, and medicinal perspectives.

This will be approximately 45 min class in Maynard (inside), with time for questions at the end. Bring a paper and pencil to take notes, and your interest in learning more about foraging.
