1912 Pequawket Trail

Join us at Foxx Run Farm as mushroom hunter and enthusiast Colleen Gardiner leads us on a mushroom ID walk! Develop your mushroom ID skills and learn how to recognize different forest types that may lead you to certain mushrooms. We never eat a mushroom unless we are 100% sure of its identity, a common phrase is often repeated "if in doubt toss it out". That said, there are plenty of excellent edible mushrooms that you can learn to ID which don't have poisonous look-a-likes and are delicious! It could be chilly so dress in layers. This is a rain or shine event. It is rocky terrain and likely to be muddy so wear boots. We will go off trail on the walk. It's a good idea to bring a water bottle and snack in a backpack. Bring a basket or bucket to carry harvested mushrooms.
