About this Event
With 15,000 species in the UK alone, fungi are a fascinating and varied realm! From tiny microscopic yeasts and moulds to those that produce huge fruiting bodies, such the Giant Puffball, they come in a wide variety of colours, forms, and sizes.
Join Sam, our Senior Nature Recovery Officer, as we learn about the fantastic fungi in our ecosystems, and how to identify them.
