This program will be an introduction to all things fungi! The southeast is home to a wide variety of fungi and one of the most biodiverse areas in our country. Skye has spent the last six years studying mycology, taking species inventory, and capturing images of over 100 fungus species. She will be going over the basics of fungal structure, how to ID fungi, local species, and how fungi is helping our society. Come learn the basics about everyone’s favorite kingdom of life!
