Wild Mushrooms of Michigan!

For the fourth and final installment of our Series on Saturday, September 28 at 10:00 am, you’re invited to join the Holland Farmers Market and our very own Mycophile’s Garden to learn everything you need to know about Michigan mushrooms!

This class will discuss the 100+ wild edible mushroom species that can be found right here in Michigan and how to best learn to identify them, along with an overview of some of the best books, websites, and groups for learning about wild edible mushrooms as well as toxic ones. The class will finish with an overview of some of the most sought after and popular edible mushrooms as well as information on where and when you might find them, along with a time for Q&A. Fresh mushrooms and mushroom growing kits will be available for sale at the Market that day as well.
