Is your club missing from our list?
Mushroom Clubs are communities of people who share a curiosity and passion for fungi. They can be small groups of enthusiasts who meet for foraging walks, students who study mycology together, or established organizations such as nonprofit clubs dedicated to mushroom education and conservation. Many host regular meetings, workshops, and seasonal forays where members learn to identify local species, share cultivation tips, and connect with experts in the field. These clubs play an important role in building community, promoting safe foraging practices, and inspiring the next generation of mushroom lovers.
What are Mushroom Clubs?
Anyone with an interest in fungi can start a Mushroom Club. You don’t need to be a professional mycologist, just someone passionate about learning and sharing knowledge with others. Many clubs begin as small local meetups organized by friends, educators, or community leaders who want to bring people together to explore mushrooms in their region. Whether you’re a student group, a small business, or an individual enthusiast, The Mushroom Directory can help you list your club, attract members, and connect with others who share your love of fungi.
Who can start a Mushroom Club?
Most Mushroom Clubs are community-based and either free to join or charge a small annual membership fee to support local activities, workshops, and events. Each club sets its own structure, so membership costs vary depending on the organization. Many clubs offer free educational walks, volunteer opportunities, and public events to help new members get involved and learn more before committing to paid monthly or annual membership.
Is it free to join a Mushroom Club?
If there aren’t any mushroom clubs near your area, we recommend joining an online community or starting your own Mushroom Club. The Mushroom Directory features virtual clubs that meet weekly or monthly via Zoom to share knowledge, discuss fungi, and build connections with people around the world. Whether you’re in a small town or a big city, there’s always a way to learn, connect, and be part of the growing mushroom community.
