Mycology is the branch of biology that studies fungi: mushrooms - and more.

On Saturday, January 8th, Crabtree Farms here in Chattanooga will host a class - Mycology 101 - that will feature the basic life cycle of a mushroom and its place in the ecosystem.

Brandon Bronkema - a citizen mycologist and permaculture designer - will facilitate the class.
