Mycorrhizal Mushrooms

Most fungi are decomposers, but there are a group of mushrooms that feed in a unique way. Mycorrhizal mushrooms gather nutrients by having a mutual relationship with plants. Learn how these fungi interact with plants and what types of mycorrhizal mushrooms are found in Hancock County. Afterwards, there will be a hike to look for examples such as Chanterelles, Russula sp., and the infamous Destroying Angel.
