📣🍄 SPEAKER ANNOUNCEMENT 🍄📣
Fulton County, GA Isabelle Herring, a long-term resident and retired art teacher for Fulton County Schools, has found a new passion in her retirement. After over 30 years of teaching art and inspiring young minds, Isabelle discovered something new: the fascinating world of mushrooms. Isabelle is no stranger to recognition and awards. As a former teacher of the year and international award-winning art educator, she has always been passionate about sharing her knowledge and creativity with others. After retiring from a rewarding career as an art educator, Isabelle discovered a new love for foraging and wild mushrooms. Her curiosity and passion for knowledge led her to write and illustrate a book that will educate and entertain readers.
Meet Mad Izzy the Mushroom Mama is a beautifully illustrated book that takes readers on a journey into the world of wild mushrooms. It is not just a guide to foraging, but a personal account of her own experiences in the woods, historical research, and scientific studies. She loves to share what she has learned from the forest with everyone. With stunning illustrations and informative descriptions, readers will learn the basics of mushroom identification.
