To join Manitoba Mushroom Society
submit this form.

 

As an option to the online form, you may download and print, then complete ALL PARTS of the following form and submit it at an MMS Event and submit your fee payment by e-transfer or cash with the form.
This is less desirable than submitting the on-line form as it will take us more time to complete your application, issue you a Membership card, and notify you about events and include you in them, and it wastes paper/trees.
