Mushroom Hike

Posted by Wayne G. Barber

Mushroom Hike

Take advantage of the outdoors while you can — after all, if you hold off too much longer there could be snow to reckon with! Lace up your hiking boots and join Ryan Bouchard and Emily Schmidt for the Mushroom Hike in Ballard Park in Newport. Bouchard and Schmidt will take you through the park and explain how mushrooms affect the ecosystem and what their role is in the environment. Explore some of the thirteen-acre land through the lens of mushrooms. Learn the plant’s secrets, facts about them, which ones to avoid and which ones to add to your favorite pasta dish.

The Details: Nov. 12 (rain date Nov. 13). 1–3 p.m. $5 donation. Meet at Hazard Road entrance, Newport. To register, call 401-619-3377 or email education@ballardpark.org. ballardpark.org.
