Topic for the April Meeting: “The Creative Side of Mushrooms” CMS member Karen Ryan will be talking about “The Creative Side of Mushrooms” A slide show will chronicle the history of dyeing with mushrooms, and the dyeing properties of certain fungi. As well as the history, Karen will be demonstrat- ing the art of paper making with fungi from start to finish. Karen has been making paper for a number of years, but it was only after becoming a member of CMS 4 years ago that she discov- ered another value of the mushrooms she so loves to hunt and eat. CMS has given her an outlet to share the creative side of mushrooms at the annual CMS Mushroom Fair. askdjhasjkdh
