MST was formed in 1973 by a group of people who had taken a course in mushroom identification taught by Dr. Roy Cain of the University of Toronto. Membership in MST gradually increased as mushroom lovers discovered there was a club where they could meet with others of like interest. Membership in MST brings you in contact with veteran mycologists, both amateur and professional, who gladly share their knowledge and steer you in the right direction with tips on when and where to find the best mushrooms, how to avoid being poisoned and what books are best for beginners to use. Members' interests are wide ranging in areas related to fungi, including: mushroom identification microscopic examination of fungi edible and poisonous mushrooms mushroom cultivation cooking photography arts and crafts postage stamps depicting mushrooms Mycological information on the Internet. The aim of MST is to stimulate public interest in and appreciation of fungi and their role in nature. All work is done by volunteers. Members are encouraged to participate by volunteering their time and skills.
