Join us for a presentation by Jean Suplick as she shares her journey into the fascinating world of our local fungi. Learn about some of the mushrooms you can expect in our area along with practical tips for identification, essential field tools, and trusted resources for further exploration.

Jean has lived in Plano for 35 years and has been a certified Texas Master Naturalist with the Blackland Prairie Chapter in Collin County since 2017. She shares her love of North Central Texas wildlife by leading programs and guided hikes for all ages, and more recently by growing native perennials to support pollinator garden projects led by her fellow Texas Master Naturalists.

ALSO: Jean will lead our 4th Sunday Nature Walk on September 27 to show you mushrooms in their forest habitat. See below for information.
