Orchid & Mushroom Walk: July 31st at 12:00 p.m.
Saturday, July 31, 2021 | 12 - 2 p.m. | Barton Creek Greenbelt
Did you know there are wild orchids in Central Texas? Better yet, did you know that some orchids are Myco-heterotrophic, meaning they rely on fungi for their nutrients rather than photosynthesis.
Join Angel and Sam the Fungi from Central Texas Mycological Society for a walk to see the rare, Hexalectris nitida. We hope to see it blooming as it was close this last weekend. Learn more about myco-heterotrophs on our blog post by Grace Stark a mycology PhD student at Berkeley.
With the recent rain, we can also expect to see more mushrooms fruiting. Bring a smart phone or SLR camera, basket or mesh bag, rubber boots or water shoes for water crossings.
We have both member ($5) and non-member ($10) tickets available.
We are always looking for more members to support our mission of mycology education. Add a membership subscription to your order to get $5 tickets, plus many more benefits, including discount codes for workshops.

Meeting location will be sent on Friday. Bring your swim clothes if you want to take a dip after the walk in Barton Creek.
