Fabulous Fungi

Join a naturalist for an afternoon exploring the fascinating world of mushrooms. You'll discover why these organisms matter to our ecosystems, learn about their potential health benefits, and uncover the surprising underground networks that connect them. The program includes hands-on identification techniques so you can recognize common mushroom species found in local parks. This program welcomes adults, teens, and seniors who are curious about nature. Whether you're a seasoned nature enthusiast or simply looking to expand your outdoor knowledge, this is a great way to spend a fall afternoon. For questions before the event, you can reach the Nature Realm Visitors Center at 330-865-8065 (they're open Wednesday through Saturday from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m., and Sunday from noon to 5 p.m.).
