Meg Madden is a Vermont native and lifelong nature lover. She is an amateur mycologist, community science advocate, and professional mushroom photographer.
Born out of a passion project, but fueled by the need for a better understanding of the fungal diversity in Vermont, Meg is on a mission to inventory and track distribution of macro fungi species in the state. Please consider joining/contributing to the iNaturalist project Fungi Of Vermont:
