Many people find themselves hunting through the woods in the spring looking for mushrooms – but how do you distinguish between edible and poisonous, and how can you tell if what you’re looking at is actually a “look-a-like”?

Join us at the Salem Public Library for an educational program with mushroom expert Erika Lyon, where she will discuss basics of mushroom ID, and which species are common to Ohio.

DATE: Monday, October 27th  

TIME: 6:30 p.m. – 7:30 p.m. 

LOCATION: Salem Public Library, 821 E. State St., Salem, OH 44460
