Everyone is welcome

Join us

You don't need any experience — just curiosity about the things growing out of the duff. Our meetings are free and open to the public, and joining makes you part of the crew that goes out into the woods together, shares the table of finds, and keeps this all-volunteer club running.

What membership gets you and your household

  • Monthly programs with guest speakers, from beginner identification to serious mycology.
  • Invitations to member forays each spring and fall — morels, chanterelles, cauliflower mushrooms, and whatever else the woods hands us.
  • Help identifying your finds: bring a specimen in a paper bag and someone will puzzle over it with you.
  • Borrowing rights at our lending library at the WSU Extension office.
  • Discounts on books and mycology-related items.
  • The chance to support an all-volunteer club that teaches safe, respectful foraging in Southwest Washington.

Dues

Our membership year runs January through December

Membership is a one-time $10 initiation fee plus $24 in yearly dues. Dues cover your whole household and go straight into club operations — speakers, meeting space, and supplies. If you join partway through the year, your dues are pro-rated for the months remaining, and renewals come due each January.

One-time initiation

$10

Paid once, when you first join.

Yearly dues

$24 per year

Covers the whole household, January through December — $2 per month if you join later in the year.

Renewals

Every January

No auto-renewal — we'll send a reminder when it's time.

Send the form below and we'll reply with your total — including the pro-rated amount if you're joining mid-year — and how to pay. You're also welcome to just show up at a meeting and sign up in person.
