DO YOU KNOW THE
MUSHROOM MAN?
ILWACO, WASH. — Salty Talks presents
an evening of conversation with Ore-
gon Park Ranger Dane Osis 6:30 p.m.
Thursday, Nov. 16, at Ilwaco’s Salt
Hotel & Pub (147 Howerton Ave.) on
the Ilwaco waterfront. The free event,
held upstairs, is open to the public.
An amazing variety of fungi thrive
in the coastal Pacific Northwest. Join
Osis for a program on these wild forest
mushrooms. This illustrated talk will
cover what fungi are, their role in the
forest and identification tips for both
edible and poisonous species. Feel free
to bring in samples of mushrooms for
identification.
Osis works at Fort Stevens State
Park. After gaining a foundation in
mushroom identification through sever-
al college courses, Dane commercially
picked mushrooms in the Siskiyou and
Deschutes National Forests. He has
been teaching mushroom identification
for the past 14 years at Fort Stevens
State Park and has shared similar train-
ing at several Oregon State Parks and
the Tillamook Forestry Center.
Come early or stay late for those
wanting to grab dinner or beverages.
Seating is limited; no reservations.
Salty Talks are held in partnership
with the Salt Hotel & Pub, Colum-
bia Pacific Heritage Museum, and
Washington State Parks and Recre-
ation Commission, with support from
Friends of Columbia River Gateway.
