Walk & Talk: An introduction to fungi
Discover the wonderful world of fungi that can be found within our ancient woodlands.
What are fungi? How do they grow? Which ones are poisonous? If you've ever had any of these questions, then this is the Walk & Talk for you!
Join us on Saturday 7th November, when our resident expert will take you for a guided tour of a Milton Keynes fungus hotspot, introducing you to some basic identification features, and providing an intro to lifecycles and other biological functions. Book your place to discover the incredible microworld of the fascinating taxa in the ancient woodland of Linford Wood.
Although we may spot some edible fungi along the way, due to their nature, we will not be encouraging anybody to pick or sample any fungi. This session is designed to teach you about the features of fungi, not to provide information for foraging.
This session is for adults and accompanied children aged 12 and over. Tickets for this event will go on sale on 1st September 2026.
We host a variety of walks, talks and workshops for adults covering many different topics including bushcraft, wildlife surveying, foraging, woodland management and wellbeing.
