Event graphic for Fungal Discovery Day and the MMS Summer Picnic. Text on a torn paper card over a black background reads: "Make a Day of it! Saturday, July 11, 2026. Thomas Lake Park, Eagan, MN. Morning Fungal Discovery Day, 9:30 AM–12:00 PM — forays, family activities, and hands-on learning for all ages. Afternoon MMS Summer Picnic, 3:00–7:00 PM, food at 4:00 — hot dogs, potluck, good company, bring a dish and a reusable cup. Free for members · Limited to 150." The card is surrounded by a collage of photographed mushrooms, leaves, and forest botanicals.

Start your morning with Fungal Discovery Day (9:30 AM to 12:00 PM), featuring family-friendly activities, accessible forays, and hands-on mushroom learning for all ages.

A group of MMS members gathered around a long picnic table outdoors, examining a spread of foraged mushrooms. The scene takes place in a lush green park setting near a covered pavilion on a summer evening.

Then come back for the MMS Summer Picnic (3:00 PM to 7:00 PM, food at 4:00 PM). Connect with fellow members while enjoying the provided hot dogs and a potluck-style spread. Please bring a reusable cup and a dish to share. Attendance is limited to 150.

Both events are free and for members only.

Signup begins June 1st at 7 PM. Look for the registration password in your MMS email communications.
