Founded in 1978, the North American Truffling Society (NATS) is a non-profit organization based in Corvallis, Oregon, that brings together amateurs and professionals who are interested in hypogeous (belowground) fungi. The mission of NATS is to enhance the scientific knowledge of North American truffles and truffle-like fungi, and promote educational activities related to truffles and truffle-like fungi. Meetings are held at 7:30pm on the Tuesday following the first Saturday of the month. Forays are held the first Saturday of each month from October through June, usually within a 60-80 mile radius of Corvallis. Affiliated with NAMA. Visit the site to learn more about truffles through their fabulous photos, newsletter, and recipes.
