About

The Fungus Federation of Santa Cruz (FFSC) is an informal affiliation of friendly, fun-loving, sometimes frenzied fungophiles dedicated to the knowledge, pursuit and appreciation of wild mushrooms. We organize many activities during the mushroom season from September through May.  The Long Distance Forays focus on overnight outings in Northern California, the Sierras, and other fruitful locations.

Remember to always to "be prepared" when you strike out to foray:

Along with your mushroom basket and knife, carry a first aid kit and emergency supplies (such as a whistle, compass, and extra food).
