Mushroom Walk - Between Fly Agaric and Porcini 2/2024 FR

hiking

sat. 12 Oct.

09h00-16h00

Edible, inedible, or poisonous? Let an expert guide you through the world of gills, spores, and mycelia. NBE invites you to a thematic walk focusing on the fascinating topic of mushrooms. A mix of walk and knowledge sharing. Key questions include:

- What is a mushroom?
- How are mushrooms collected?
- How can mushrooms be prepared?

Discover also the ecological importance of mushrooms for woodland and responsible collecting methods.

Additional Information: The goal of the walk is not to collect as many mushrooms as possible, but to learn about them and their properties. Any collection for personal consumption after attending is at your own responsibility. Participation does not replace a mycologist training. The variety depends on season and location.

Items to bring: a basket, a (mushroom) knife, weatherproof clothing, sturdy footwear, and if available, a mushroom book.
