WMS Membership

Membership to WMS is valid from January through December.  
​Memberships paid after October 1st  include the following year's membership.
Membership dues are for the whole year and a great value for anyone interested in learning about fungi and edible mushrooms. Your financial support helps fund WMS events, lecture fees and forays at some locations.
We are volunteer run so 100% of your membership dues goes directly back into events and content put on for you and other members and support of mycology in the state. Memberships can be treated singly or for families - with one membership covering  you and your household.

WMS members receive a newsletter twice a year with notices for all mushroom hunting forays, dinners meetings, lectures, workshops,  socials, and much more.  Members are also eligible to run for positions on the WMS board.
Dues must be up to date prior to attending any WMS members' events, forays, Zoom lectures, etc. A few events, like  our yearly Fungi Fair, are open to the public.

 When you join you are paying for 1 year of membership - you are not automatically signed up to pay the next year. We will remind you in January when the year is up, and then again until March when we switch to the new year's membership.

If paying digitally, please check Paypal to see that your payment has gone through, and look to see what email you have set as your "primary address" for Paypal. This is the contact information we will use for you. If it is not the email you want used, send us an email at mycologicalsocietywisconsin@gmail.com or use the Contact form on this website. You can also do this to let us know a membership you purchased is a gift for someone else! We can send specialized "Welcome" emails for holiday, birthday, and congratulations gift memberships to your chosen recipient. Again, you would buy a membership and then contact us here or by email letting us know your request.

The Paypal record is your receipt for membership - you will not receive an additional receipt from WMS. Please contact us if you have questions about any part in this process!

THANK YOU FOR BECOMING A WMS MEMBER

We are happy that you have decided to join us!  We encourage all members to get involved and make this society your own. WMS volunteers donate a lot of time and experience to spread mycological awareness, mycophilia, and support education throughout the state of Wisconsin.

Along the way, we have fun, learn about the world of fungi, and meet a lot of great people!

Getting active with WMS can be as simple as bringing a great dish to the potluck, or as elaborate as hosting a whole foray out into the woods.  

Be sure to confirm or update your email, snail mail address, & phone number in Paypal with us prior to paying your dues.

In order to get your membership benefits, we need to keep in contact!
