About the event

Mushroom Forage and Picnic in Newlands Forest
Join renowned Mycologist and author, Gary Goldman, known as the Mushroom Fundi, on an early morning hike in Newlands forest with a small group of fellow mushroom enthusiasts.

Armed with baskets, boots and pocket knives you’ll head into the forest and learn how to track down elusive porcini, pine rings, slippery Jacks and more.

Gary will demonstrate how to gently remove, clean, and how to store your mushrooms in your basket for safe keeping.

Enjoy a delicious wild food picnic by RE Wild Food.
