Come to the Mushroom Count at Marsh's Falls
When and where - Saturday August 28, 9 am to noon, Marsh’s Falls
Rain date - Sunday August 29, same time
Leader - Mark McLean
Mushrooms come in all shapes, sizes and colours. We will try to find and identify as many species as possible. Sharp eyes will be needed to detect the specimens on the forest floor. This is a great opportunity to learn about mushrooms in general, and which kinds grow around Lake of Bays. Participants should wear good walking shoes and bring bug spray and water.
To register, please email us at registration@lakeofbaysheritage.ca. This is a popular event and
participation is limited so register early!!
