Next meeting is on Saturday October 21: Eastham Country Park Fungus Foray  Leader – Steve Cross   Meet at Eastham Country Park Visitor Centre, Ferry Road, Eastham Village, CH62 0BH.
SJ 36338 81821 (what3words:- arts.slide.dent).  
​Fungi and any late flowering plants.

Unless otherwise stated, meetings will start at 10.30.  Please wear suitable footwear and have waterproof clothing as there is often uneven (or wet ground) or inclement weather. Bring a packed lunch and plenty to drink, as well as insect repellents, sunhats, sun-cream etc. Identification books, hand lenses, a phone and camera would be useful too. Members will need to pre-book with leaders and give contact details, so we know who to expect at meetings and in case there are any last-minute changes. Attendance at field meetings is at members’ own risk. Each meeting contains an educational component to help new or less experienced members.      

​Founded in 1906, the Society runs a programme of events, ​indoor meetings at the World Museum Liverpool during the winter months and field meetings around the region during spring, summer, and autumn.
The early years of the Society were documented in the Transactions and Proceedings of the Liverpool Botanical Society, then in a Bulletin and the Society now produces a newsletter Parnassia with news and reports of indoor and field meetings (latest issue here). ​The Library of the Society is located in the Botany Department in the Museum.
Thinking of joining? Why not come along to join us free of charge for a few field meetings before committing to membership. We are a friendly society and members are welcome whatever their age, level of botanical knowledge or background.

On social media we have an active Facebook group where members can share photos of recent finds and ask for help with identification​, we also have photos and accounts of our meetings.
