Morels, King Boletes, Chanterelles—these are just a few of the wild mushrooms you can find in Central Oregon. The trick is knowing when and where to look—and how to identify them correctly. Deschutes Public Library is pleased to offer two free events that will show people how to safely hunt for mushrooms in Central Oregon.

Skye Weintraub, a naturopathic physician and an avid wild mushroom hunter, will explore the edible, poisonous and beautiful mushrooms that grow in our area during her two presentations. She has studied and photographed mushrooms for 30 years and is the President of the Cascade Mycological Society.
