SVIMS Quadra Island Foray - Sept 30-Oct 2, 2011 |
|
Two dozen members of the South Vancouver Island Mycological Society (SVIMS) and more than fifty local enthusiasts packed the Heriot Bay Inn dining room on Friday, September 30 for the opening event of Wild Mushroom Weekend – 2011. Dr. Shannon Berch gave a lively presentation on west coast mushrooms. On Saturday, forty-some visitors and Islanders spread out with the mission to find as many different species of mushrooms as possible. When the haul was unpacked, Shannon, Jim Jones, founder of the Bamfield Mushroom Festival, and other SVIMS members went to work. On Sunday morning, weekend participants (along with quite a bit of walk-in traffic) viewed 115 different species of mushroom laid out in the BayView Room at the HBI. Here are some photos from the weekend.
