Join Chick of the Woods for a Fungi Adventure!Dive into the fascinating world of mushroom foraging with this hands-on class designed to boost your confidence and skills. We’ll begin with an interactive discussion covering the basics of foraging, safety guidelines, helpful tips, and tricks. Fresh, seasonal mushrooms will be on hand for you to see, touch, and learn how to identify key varieties before heading out on our adventure.
After the introduction, we’ll wander into the woods to search for mushrooms. While we can pick the mushrooms we find, this event is not focused on filling baskets. This is an educational experience focused on teaching you how to find and identify delicious springtime mushrooms (like morels, oysters, and pheasant backs) – and the dangerous ones, too. If we pick any edible mushrooms on our hunt, we will divide them evenly and attendees can bring them home.
Once our foraging is complete, Chick of the Woods will demonstrate a simple cooking technique using springtime mushrooms, and everyone will enjoy a light tasting. If you have any dietary restrictions, please contact us at in**@*************ds.com to inquire before signing up.

This class is perfect for complete beginners and seasoned foragers looking to sharpen their skills. Never been on a mushroom hunt with Chick of the Woods? Learn more here.
