Join us for a naturalist-guided walk at Gator Trails Park in Cape Coral as we explore the fascinating world of fungi! Participants will learn about mushrooms’ vital role in a healthy ecosystem and the basic principles of identification. We will explore the park at a leisurely pace, stopping to observe and identify mushrooms by using guidebooks and adding photos to the iNaturalist app. Please note that this is not a foraging program, and collecting, eating, or tasting mushrooms is not allowed during the program.
This program is suitable for all ages. Participants under 16 must attend with a parent or guardian.
Participants should bring a water bottle and wear clothing appropriate for the weather. We recommend sun protection, bug spray, and closed-toe shoes, no flip-flops. Restrooms are available on site.
This program is provided in partnership with the City of Cape Coral Parks and Recreation Department.
