Mushroom Identification Classes
The Program is designed to educate scientific minded, or just the curious, to 40 different
mushroom species through four consecutive courses.
Course One:
Ten Common Poisonous Mushrooms of Missouri
Course Two:
Ten Common Mushrooms of Missouri – Part I
Course Three:
Ten Common Mushrooms of Missouri – Part II
Course Four:
Ten Common Edible Mushrooms of Missouri
Each class provides training and offers optional field work. Optional field work includes
collection and recording of three discussed species, and a one page essay on anything
pertaining to the respective class. A test will be given. After successful completion of
training, field experience, homework and test for each class, the student will receive a
beautiful award pin acknowledging proficiency in that area of mycology.
A participant who completes all four courses will be awarded the Missouri Mycological
Society’s Harry S. Thiers Badge of Achievement Certification in
“Mushroom Identification & Classification Proficiency”
