Walk and Talk – Identifying Mushrooms

Tortworth Arboretum

10:30am-12:30pm or 2-4pm

Join our Collection Manager, Jake, for a few hours of happy rambling, learning about the mushrooms that grow right on our doorstep.

The walk will begin with a brief introduction to the arboretum and safety talk before venturing out together. Identifying mushrooms is a complicated but fascinating process. Jake will take you through some of the key features to look for, including how to recognise plant habitats and which specimens to avoid. This is an opportunity to touch, smell and learn, take photos and videos, make notes and take away a wealth of information.

This is a relaxed walk with lots of time to ask questions, satisfy your curiosity and expand your perspective of native plant life.

Knowledge required: Perfect for beginners!

Group size: 15 maximum.

Minimum age: Whilst we think this event is best suited to those 10+ you know your child best, if you have a young budding nature lover who would enjoy this walk they are welcome to join. If you’re bringing a child along with you please do let us know their age when booking.
