Fun with Fungi Hike
November 3, 2024 @ 9:00 am - 10:00 am
Join Mattapoisett Land Trust and Mass Audubon as we head out on an all-ages family hike at ‘Walega-Livingstone Preserve’ in the Brandt Island Cove trail system. Long pants and hiking shoes recommended; the trail may be muddy.
Fungi are the decomposers and recyclers of our forest systems. Without them, forests would take much longer to regenerate. The mushrooms we see are just the spore-producing bodies of a much larger and more complex organism growing in the wood or ground below.
The hike will be from 9:00-10:00am and begin at the Anchorage Way kiosk. Plenty of parking available on the street!
This program is FREE but please register here with Mass Audubon so we can get a headcount!
