Foraging Mushrooms at Eagle's Crest

Come out and join us for a walk and search for mushrooms on the west side of Eagle Creek State Park.

We'll be walking about about 2-3 miles. You will probably have to pay $7 to enter the park unless you have a State Park pass in Indiana (they recently changed the entrance here so I'm not sure if we'll have to pay to enter or not). Feel free to post a comment in the group if you'd like to find folks to carpool with.

Everyone is welcome to attend no matter how much or little you know about foraging.

Note: Participants gather and consume plants and mushrooms at their own risk.

If you are new to foraging or just want to learn to identify more plant species, I recommend downloading a plant Identification app on your phone. You should never rely on an app as a sole means of identifying a plant or mushroom, but it’s a good way to learn more and get to know more plants and mushrooms. The "Picture This" app is good for plants and "Seek" is great for identifying insects and sometimes helpful for mushrooms.
