Lichen Appreciation Post

11/8/24 – Quiet in the Northwoods as of late, so figured I’d share some pictures of lichen I took a couple days ago while out on a sunny midday walk.

Lichen are actually two organisms, fungus and algae, working together. The fungi provide the shelter, while the algae provide the sustenance. For more information I highly recommend checking out this article from the Minnesota Conservation Volunteer. -Jessica
