About this Event
Curious about the mysterious world of fungi—what they are, where they thrive, and the many species that call Michigan home? Join Lorenzo Lo Piccolo for an engaging, interactive presentation exploring fascinating fungal facts, basic anatomy, safe and responsible foraging practices, sustainable harvesting, and hands-on identification activities. Discover the hidden kingdom of fungi all around you!
Lorenzo Lo Piccolo began foraging in the early 2000s. What began as a springtime mushroom interest quickly became a long passion to forage and appreciate fungi, plants, and their mutual connections. Lorenzo holds a Mushroom Certification in Michigan from MAMI/MDARD and enjoys sharing his foraging experiences with the public through talks and guided park tours. Check out his findings on his Instagram: @lorenzo.funginus
