"Wild Mushrooms of Washington County, MD," a pictorial database of local mushrooms, was recently published by the Environmental Science class of Highland View Academy. This publication was funded by Toyota Motors Foundation as part of a $10,000.00 Toyota Tapestry Grant for Teachers for a project, "A Study of Saprophytic and Mycorrhizal Mushrooms of Washington County and Surrounding Areas and Their Role in Forest Ecosystems." The booklet features color photographs of local wild mushrooms in their natural habitats.
