Other Mushroom Clubs

MAW is part of a network of mushroom clubs around the country. You may want to check out some of these other groups.

Other Local Nature Resources

There are more than just mushrooms to see and learn about. 

  • Audubon Naturalist Society - The Audubon Naturalist Society provides opportunities to learn about trees, herbaceous plants, geology and, of course, birds.
  • Hiker's Notebook - An engaging and informative resource for outdoor enthusiasts from MAW vice president William Needham.
  • Matt's Habitats - Additional opportunities to learn about the edible outdoors from MAW member Matt Cohen.
  • Maryland Native Plant Society - The name says it all. This local and very active group is a great resource to learn about our regional flora though its many sponsored events. Learning to ID trees will make you a better mushroomer!
