About this event
Get to know what’s going on and share what you’ve learned — just don’t give away that secret spot. Join us for a lively evening of all things OMS 2026: committee updates, discoveries, and conversation! We’ll share a broad range of topics, including the best cultivated mushrooms of 2026, potential new fungal species discoveries, and the micro-world of nematode-piercing mushrooms you can grow in your backyard.
We’ll also have a special Fungal Book Sale, featuring donated books from the collections of past club members. Many of these books are unique, out-of-print, collectible, or sought-after titles. You may unearth a real treasure!
This is your time to connect. We encourage you to bring fungal-themed snacks and recipes to share.
