September Wild Mushrooms

September is our favorite month for wild mushroom collecting, an idyllic moment in time when we still can enjoy summer favorites as new seasonal species join the entourage with each cold, rainy night. In September, you could fill up a basket of porcini and hedgehogs on a morning brookside waltz among conifers, and then encounter hen of the woods and lion’s mane that very afternoon in your local upland hardwood forest.  September offers a rare confluence of tender and hardy highlights, with elevation, aspect, and ecology playing a role in whether you encounter a heat-loving golden chanterelle or a yellowfoot ‘winter’ chanterelle on your early fall foray.

In this online class, Ari will discuss what he is finding this September, sharing colorful updates from the field and offering tips to facilitate a safe and productive foray.

This live online class is part of the 2023 mycophile membership program and the May through October members-only online class series. Learn more and sign up here to participate in our 2023 Mycophile Membership program.
