Read about our incredible exchange with @ItascaBio this summer. I was lucky to get to learn from @shroominn -- thanks to @OBFSFieldBio for supporting this exchange (highly recommend to other field stations out there)
The @UMich Biological Station and the University of Minnesota Itasca Biological Station and Laboratories took time this summer to learn from each other. Teams visited their counterpart’s campus as part of a field station exchange program. @ItascaBio @UMBS myumi.ch/Q656V

Station just said goodbye to 110 people with Hydrogeology field camp, RIDGSs workshop, Iowa State demming lake research crew, Science of Craft students, and a sustainability retreat group. Still crankin’, and it’s lovely! @umncbs

A spectacular clump of showy lady's-slippers! Minnesota orchid expert Welby Smith notes that large clumps such as this can be well over a hundred years old...

Don’t forget collectors’ gear aisle. Complete with ‘don’t spray insect repellent indoors’ note. That’s love.

Twas the night before field courses, and throughout my class, all you need for mycology, and a spot for your ass.
