North Farms Road entrance to FLCA 61 North Farms Road, northampton

Join mycologist Peter Russell on a foray to look at the fungi fruiting around Fitzgerald Lake.  We will use the fungi we find to consider the roles they play in the ecosystem, especially their succession in space and time both on decomposing wood and as mycorrhizal partners with trees.  The main purpose of the foray
