Joining the Illinois Mycology Association?
    #13863035 - 01/27/11 10:07 PM (13 years, 29 days ago)

Sorry if that link breaks any rules, and also I apologize in advance if this is in the wrong thread.
I found this organization today, and I think it's REALLY cool. Memberships are only like $25, and they host monthly meetings where you can come get tips from professional mycologists, as well as bring in wild specimens to have identified, try samples of people's edibles, buy mycology supplies, look at pictures of wild morels, and just all around hang out with people that like mushrooms. I'm a complete novice though, so although I think something like this could potentially help me out alot, I also feel like maybe I'd be a bit out of place and feel awfully stupid around professional mycologists.

I also highly doubt anybody there grows or is willing to admit they grow Psilocybins, but obviously I wasn't planning on walking in and talking about magic mushrooms with people. I do have a general interest for the science behind a mushrooms life cycle, how they reproduce, etc. and it seems like this could be a good place to learn all that, as well as make some valuable connects.

Do you guys think this would be incriminating in any way? Like, some mohawked stoner lookin' teenager walks in to a Mycological association with a bunch of old people, I feel like some of them might get the wrong idea as to my motives...

What do you guys think? Anybody else in a "mushroom club" or anything similar?

a paul stamets convention would be nice, good chance you'd see RR there too. As for that club garentee you'll meet some "like minded folk" just think science and listen between the line dont anounce your illegal interests what so ever but what u learn there u will still be able to apply
