He'll share fascinating facts, from the beautiful to the bizarre, and explain the vital role fungi play in our world.

This is a chance for the whole family to get a crash course in mycology from an expert who truly puts the "fun" in fungi!
"Fungi are awesome. They have cool names that make me feel good in my innards. They have cool smells that make my face look better than usual when i smell them. And they get me out in nature, which is out of the house, where i’m often made to feel bad because I forgot to put the bin out for two weeks running. Even though i’d been reminded and there was a note at the back door. Yeah, fungi are well better than bin days."
