Since 1989, the Northwest Mushroomers Association has promoted the understanding and appreciation of mushrooms to further the study of mycology in northwestern Washington state, including Whatcom, Skagit, and Island counties.

We meet the second Thursdays of each month during spring and fall to explore the amazing world of fungi. At our member meetings you'll find a wealth of knowledge and excellent guest speakers, some from far afield and some from our own ranks, as well as hands-on mushroom specimens to share and identify. Read our latest newsletter.

Members join in group forays, with specific time and location information for each foray sent by email. At these forays our more experienced members are available to share their knowledge of mushroom identification, habitat, and ecosystems with less experienced members. We also teach a mushroom identification class each fall.
