Some fruits that occur in early spring\, and we’ll discover those.  This would also be the time to collect cuttings for sprouting\, so you can grow these plants at your own home.   Mushrooms are beginning now. \nLOCATION:  We will explore a foothill canyon in the Angeles National Forest. Details sent upon registration. \n  \n
