Here at IGAS Tours our goal is to educate on the great world of fungi. Although I focus on identifying and finding choice edible mushrooms, my true interests lie in the complete ecology of the forest and the delicate balance that these fungi play. Whether you are a homeowner hoping to identify mushrooms popping up in your yard, a cook desiring to try mushrooms that are just not available in stores, a health or nature enthusiast who enjoys identifying things while you walk or exercise, or someone who simply thinks they're beautiful and would like to photograph them. Be prepared to have all your myco- dreams achieved.
As a certified wild mushroom vendor I do sell fresh foraged goods, I also provide private educational tours, lead forays, do property sustainability assessment, and will speak at events.
We really enjoy hearing from you!
The last Sunday of each month we get together and explore new ecosystems and attempt to find delicious mushrooms. You will learn how to identify what is currently growing and learn about the environments.
