Join the Northern Rhode Island Conservation District on Tuesday, October 18 to learn about common local fungi and their importance to our forested ecosystems. Please note that this is not a foraging/collecting walk, but a chance to learn about and enjoy fungi in their native environment. Our walk will be led by RI Mycological Society founder and NRICD Board Member Deana Tempest Thomas.

Be prepared for light hiking and the potential for mud and uneven terrain. Kid friendly. Leashed and friendly dogs are welcome. Please be prepared to pack out any dog waste.

Registration for this event is now full, but you can join the waitlist by emailing your name and contact information to mallard.nricd@gmail.com. Exact location and directions to the event will be shared directly with attendees.

Participants will be notified if the event must be cancelled. Event will proceed in light rain.

Please bring an orange vest if you have one. We will have some extras available if you do not.
