Fungi Finders: A Forest Discovery Hike

There's a fascinating world of fungi hiding in the forest. Let's go find it! 🍄

Join Youth Science Institute (YSI) for Fungi Finders, a guided nature hike through the beautiful woodlands of Sanborn County Park! We'll search for mushrooms, investigate their unique characteristics, and uncover the science behind these fascinating organisms.


Why do mushrooms grow where they do? How do fungi help forests thrive? From breaking down decaying wood and recycling nutrients to forming important relationships with plant roots, fungi play an essential role in keeping ecosystems healthy.


Along the way, we'll practice our observation skills, ask questions, and explore the connections that make forest ecosystems work. Come curious and ready to think like a scientist as we discover the hidden world of fungi!
