I’m leaving today with a whole new appreciation for what goes on beneath our feet.

Thank you, Erik Hrabovsky, for sharing your knowledge and passion with us at Chandler Creek today. You made complex ideas easy to understand and reminded us just how connected everything in nature really is.

Thank you as well to everyone who joined us. It was such a great group, and it was wonderful to spend the morning exploring one of Christina Lake’s beautiful creeks together.

Getting the chance to inoculate the creek with native fungi was something I’ll never forget. It’s amazing to think that something so small can become part of a healthier watershed for years to come.

Thanks for being part of such a meaningful day.

Most of us walk through the forest without realizing there’s a whole world working away beneath our feet.

Come explore the Eholt watershed with mycologist and zoologist Erik Hrabovsky and discover how fungi connect forests, support wildlife, and help keep our waterways healthy. It’s fascinating stuff, and Erik has a way of making it easy to understand.

If you enjoy being outside or you’re simply curious about nature, come along. You’ll learn something new, meet some great people, and spend a morning exploring one of the Boundary’s beautiful natural areas.

Have you ever wondered what is happening beneath the forest floor every time you head into the woods?

Most of us notice mushrooms when they pop up after a rainy day, but they are only a small part of an incredible underground network. Hidden beneath our feet is mycelium, which helps trees share nutrients, supports healthy forests, and even helps filter water before it reaches our creeks and rivers.

Join us in Grand Forks at Fisherman's Creek on July 11th for a free, hands-on MycoWaters field workshop led by guest mycologist and zoologist Erik Hrabovsky. Erik has a gift for making nature come alive, helping people understand the fascinating connections between fungi, wildlife, forests, and clean water in ways that are easy to understand.

Whether you love hiking, fishing, bird watching, foraging, gardening, or simply spending time outdoors, you’ll come away with a whole new appreciation for the natural world around you. You may never look at a forest or creek the same way again.

All of the event details and registration information are on the poster below. We hope you’ll join us for this unique opportunity to explore the hidden side of the Boundary’s forests and waterways.

What do mushrooms have to do with clean water? More than you might think. 🍄💧

Have you ever wondered why some creeks stay crystal clear while others don’t? Or why healthy forests are so important for the places we swim, fish, and explore?

Join us for a FREE guided field workshop and discover the hidden world beneath your feet.

Led by guest mycologist Erik Hrabovsky, you’ll explore local creeks and forests while learning how fungi, through their underground network of mycelium, help trees thrive, improve soil health, and even play a role in keeping our watersheds healthy.

This isn’t a classroom lecture or a mushroom-foraging class. It’s a relaxed walk through nature where you’ll gain a whole new appreciation for the incredible connections between forests, fungi, and the water we all depend on.

Whether you’re curious about nature, enjoy hiking, care about protecting our local environment, or simply want to learn something new, this workshop is for you. No experience is needed, just comfortable shoes and a sense of curiosity.

Come see your local watershed through a whole new lens!
