This workshop introduces participants to a range of fungi from the local region and beyond. Taking a multisensory approach (using sight, touch and smell), we’ll work through various fungus specimens and the basic diagnostic features that are used to identify them.

Don’t forget to bring along your mushroom specimens for identification.
