Join MAW for a mushroom-filled weekend in Pennsylvania's Laurel Highlands. Our foray at Camp Sequanota has been an annual event for more than 40 years. It's a great opportunity to advance your mushroom knowledge and get to know other mushroom enthusiasts. Note, this year you can add-on a Thursday evening arrival.

Our guest mycologists are Shannon Nix and Todd Elliott.

Each day we will have mushroom hunting forays and on Saturday & Sunday we will have various workshops -- in the past we've had mushroom cooking, koji making, nature jewelry, beer making, mushroom ID for newbies, mushroom paper making, and fungal-insect investigation workshops. In the evenings, Saturday and Sunday dinner will be followed by guest mycologist presentations, a night walk on Saturday, and our third annual myco-costume/talent show on Sunday (bring along a costume, a song, a poem, a skit, etc!)

Your registration includes 8 meals (Friday evening to Monday breakfast), all forays, workshops, and evening programs. (If you add-on Thursday, Friday breakfast and lunch are included.) Onsite accommodations options are rustic motel-style rooms, rustic cabins, or tenting. There are also a few different hotels within 20-25 minutes of the campus. Registration closes August 16, 2026.

Also, please consider volunteering an hour of your time for cleaning foraged mushrooms, cleanup at the end of the event, and various other tasks.

Guests are not permitted to bring dogs to Sequanota.
