Don’t be disappointed in the very low numbers of edible Fungi showing themselves this year. Prepare yourself better for next season with fungal foraging tips by coming along to our presentation at the Barossa Bushgardens on Aug 12th at the comfortable time of 3.30 – 5pm. There’ll be a slideshow presentation, practical mushroom dissection and a handout to take home too.
It’s free and afternoon tea is provided (no, it’s not beef wellington😉).
Much of the information can be found on this website, on our Wild Fungi page but there’s nothing like attending a workshop in person to get your head around the fine details and listen to me carry on with endless anecdotes about mushrooming.
What you’ll learn –
You’ll learn about the parts of a fungus and how Fungi benefit the ecosystems in which they live. There’ll be a lot of foraging tips and, of course, detailed ID tips for the more spectacular, edible Fungi that most of us are missing out on this year because of the climate.
Even though there (probably) won’t be any edible, wild fungi around, I’ll be bringing some store bought Agaricus mushrooms that we can have fun dissecting and learning the parts of.
Hopefully, our little Fungal Foraging booklet will be ready by then too!
Usually, paid subscribers to this website get to select a workshop during the year that they can attend for free but this is a free event, so it won’t cost anything anyway.
