Mushroom Identification Workshop

By exploring the fungi of Lake Chicot State Park, we uncover the hidden network that connects and supports all forest life. Discover the fascinating world of fungi at Lake Chicot State Park with the Gulf South Mycological Society! Start the day learning about mushroom anatomy and the unique species of the season, then enjoy a relaxing bring-your-own picnic lunch in the park. In the afternoon, set out on a guided expedition to uncover mushrooms in their natural habitat and wrap up with a lively group identification session. Don’t forget to pack water, insect repellent, sunscreen, and sturdy shoes for your adventure. Space is limited—reserve your spot today by calling the visitor center at (870) 265-5480.
