Wild Mushroom Show



We saw this poster for the Wild Mushroom Show, and thought it would be a wild thing to see. It is one of the largest and most complete wild mushroom exhibits in the United States. The 48th annual wild mushroom show put on by the Puget Sound Mycological Society. About 30 members of the PSMS collected all of the hundreds of mushrooms varieties seen at the show from within a "cars drive" of Seattle.

There were more mushrooms than you can shake a stick at, presentations, cooking demonstrations, mushroom identification, and more fungi nerds than one room can handle. It was really interesting and very popular; an estimated 2,500 people came to the show.
