DESCRIPTION:All About Mushrooms with Field Naturalist Jonathan Kranz (IN PERSON)\nTuesday\, June 3\n6:00—7:00 PM\nProgram Room Newburyport Public Library\n\n\nThey’re mushrooms\, the fruiting bodies of an otherwise invisible world of fungi hidden in our forests\, lawns…and flowerpots. \nJoin Mass Audubon Field Naturalist Jonathan Kranz as he reveals what mushrooms are and how they live; reviews the most common and most spectacular mushrooms in our region of New England; identifies the most delicious mushrooms to eat; and teaches the basics of safe mushroom foraging! \nAbout the Presenter: \nJonathan Kranz is a Mass Audubon Certified Field Naturalist who leads mushroom walks and talks throughout southern New England.
