For our UKFD 2020 Online Special - we contacted some of the UK’s finest mycologists and asked them to share 5 minutes of fungi with us all. With nothing but a phone in hand, could they offer us a little insight into an area of fungi that really makes them tick? These are the results!
Are you fascinated by the beauty and diversity of fungi? Are you interested in learning more about how to use fungi in art and design? Would you like to exhibit your work at a UK Fungus Day event?
If you work in a museum, gallery, nature reserve, park, garden or other tourist attraction, you can take part in UK Fungus Day. Here is a selection of ideas that your venue could do to engage you visitors.
Become a fungus detective, learn how fungi put the bubbles in bread and grow your own mushrooms on toilet rolls. Why not take the family along to a local UK Fungus day event?
Many fungal biologists would normally organise talks and demonstrations for UKFD. Due to the Covid-19 these will be put on hold for 2020. Hopefully these will return in 2021and get to meet the scientists performing the latest research into fungal biology and learn about their work.
