Spring Mushroom Foraging with Langdon Cook
March 11 @ 7:00 pm - 8:30 pm
The forest is waking up—are you ready to find its hidden treasures?
Join us for an immersive presentation on the unique world of spring mushroom foraging in the Pacific Northwest. While many wait for fall, the wetter conditions of Western Washington make springtime a prolific season for some of our most sought-after species.
Langdon Cook is a writer, instructor, and lecturer on wild foods and the outdoors. His books include Upstream: Searching for Wild Salmon, from River to Table (Ballantine, May 2017), a finalist for the Washington State Book Award, The Mushroom Hunters: A Hidden World of Food, Money, and (Mostly Legal) Adventure, winner of the 2014 Pacific Northwest Book Award, and Fat of the Land: Adventures of a 21st Century Forager, which The Seattle Times called “lyrical, practical and quixotic.”
Meetings are free and open to the public.
