Mushroom Nature Study
Posted by Cindy on May 8, 2009
Spring is such a fun time for studying mushrooms! It’s been raining a lot around here and a quick trip around the yard led to six different types of mushrooms found in about five minutes time yesterday.
Towards evening, we headed to a spot on the farm where leftover hay has been decomposing. What treasures we found there!
If you’ve never taken a mushroom walk, now is a great time to do it! Damp ground, decomposing logs, old leaf piles, and dung piles are great places to look.
