Greg Marley

Rockland Public Library is pleased to welcome back Greg Marley for a virtual talk on mushrooms, this time with a focus on foraging.

Collecting and eating wild mushrooms is an intimidating prospect for the beginner. There are so many different mushrooms, and some of them are devilishly difficult to tell apart. Some are poisonous; a few, dangerously toxic. However, there are a number of mushrooms that are great edibles, easily identified and without toxic lookalikes, and these may provide you with all the mushrooms you’ll ever want! Mushrooming author and teacher Greg Marley will focus on some common “foolproof” mushrooms found in the Northeastern United States. This virtual talk will be especially valuable for someone who is just starting out or wants to learn mushrooming.
