Use the November 14 calendar entry

Virginia State Parks lists Fungal Friends at Fairy Stone State Park on Saturday, November 14, from 2 to 3 p.m. at Shelter 4. The program explains what happens to a fallen tree and how fungi help break down dead wood.

The detail page also shows a November 7 session, which has already passed; November 14 is listed separately.

Check the park notice before leaving

Children are welcome. The park lists no registration or extra program charge, but regular park parking or admission charges apply.

If the notice won’t open, call the park at 276-930-2424. This is a program about fungi’s role in the forest, not guidance on identifying mushrooms to eat.
