Meet at the Northwest Nature Shop\, 154 Oak St.\, Ashland at 10:00 am where we’ll gather as a group and then drive to the foraging location (approximately 45 – 60 minutes from Ashland.) Return to Ashland by 4:00 pm. \nBe prepared for adverse weather. Wear appropriate hiking shoes (We will be doing some off-trail walking on uneven terrain)\, bring a water bottle\, a lunch\, rain gear\, a collecting basket\, a foldable knife\, a mushroom ID book if you have one\, and a whistle. Cost is $55 per person per hike.  6 dates offered:  Saturday September 24\, Sunday September 25\, October 2nd\, October 15\, October 16 and October 22nd.   The location of each hike will be disclosed at a later date to give us flexibility in planning around weather and mushroom abundance.
