I have had an interest in fungi since the early 1980's. I came across MSSF around 2001. I joined soon after and have had many great experiences. Along the way, I also became a member Bay Area Applied Mycology (BAAM).


By going to meetings, forays, volunteering and immersing myself in all things fungal. I started to wonder if what I was learning could be applied at home instead of venturing out to acquire mushrooms. Over the years, an array of mushrooms have appeared in our front and back yard. Oh, also in the garage. So, as an amateur mycologist I will try to share some of my experiences.

On the third Tuesday of each month from September thru May, the Mycological Society of San Francisco hosts a General Meeting open to Members and the public.  The Society has maintained our schedule of events using electronic media, Zoom, to meet and share our mission to educate about the kingdom of Fungi.
