Join us as we celebrate the release of the much-anticipated book Edible Wild Mushrooms of Illinois and Surrounding States with coauthors Gregory M. Mueller and Joe McFarland. Topics of discussion take you from the field to the kitchen and will leave ample time for questions and answers. Everyone registered for this event receives a copy of the book, and is invited to attend a fun overview of mushrooms in Illinois followed by a book signing and reception. Thierry LeFeuvre is making morel soup for the event.
