Description

Celebrate all things mushroom at the Wild Mushroom Festival on Sunday, October 4! Learn about mushroom hunting and identification through woodland walks and talks with naturalists, foragers, and mushroom experts. Expand your knowledge at the mushroom identification table while exploring tastes of mushroom-themed food and drink from local chefs. Browse the expanded Mushroom Marketplace, with artists, mycologists, foragers, crafters, growers, and chefs offering items for sale. We will also have a local tattoo artist pop-up offering mushroom-themed designs and live music to enjoy while exploring the festival. Entry begins promptly at 12 pm and the festival runs until 4 pm.
