Mushroom walk with OCCA

August 3, 2025 @ 2:00 pm - 4:00 pm

People standing in woods with baskets

Discover the fascinating world of fungi with OCCA and certified mushroom forager Shane Gardner during our next educational mushroom walk on Sunday, August 3 at 2 p.m. As part of our monthly series, this two-hour guided walk offers a hands-on opportunity to explore local woodlands while learning how to identify wild mushrooms in the field. Participants will search for a variety of species, discuss their ecological roles, and sharpen their observational skills. Participants are not foraging for the table in this program, but can bring a basket or bag to gather during the class for the q & a at the end.

 

This event will be held at the Upland Interpretive Center at Thayer Farm, 7027 State Route 80, Cooperstown, NY.
