LAMS is a non-profit group whose purpose is to foster and expand the understanding and appreciation of mycology (that is the study of mushrooms and fungi).

We create and sponsor fun mushroom related events and help people learn about and identify mushrooms they find in the greater Los Angeles area.

This promises to be an outstanding Mushroom Fair.  Our keynote speaker will be renowned mycologist Gary Lincoff, the author or editor of several books and articles on mushrooms, including The Audubon Society Field Guide to North American Mushrooms.

 

 

We are pleased to announce that Nancy Silverton will be our guest chef.  Nancy Silverton is the co-owner of Osteria Mozza, Pizzeria Mozza, and Mozza2Go in Los Angeles, as well as Osteria Mozza and Pizzeria Mozza in Singapore. She is the founder of the La Brea Bakery and formerly owned and operated Campanile restaurant. She is the author of several books including Nancy Silverton's Sandwich Book, Nancy Silverton's Breads from the La Brea Bakery, Desserts, and most recently, The Mozza Cookbook.
