On Sunday 2nd May, Gunning District Landcare hosted a fabulous workshop on fungi in Dalton, led by the amazing Alison Pouliot. Alison shared an enormous amount of information through stories, a beautiful specimen table and a walk in a nearby park. We have all come away with a far greater appreciation of the fascinating and important role that fungi plays in our ecosystems, in our culture, and some invaluable tips on how to approach fungi identification. The next evening, Alison was in Gunning to talk about her new co-authored book, Wild Mushrooming. She again had the audience hanging onto her every word - such is the fascination with fungi and her compelling delivery!

Thanks to everyone who participated and to Local Land Services for providing the funding through a Regional Land Partnerships grant.
